When I was in the business of selling guns (my gosh! 20years ago!) the markup was 20% on high end guns a bit lower on others and money was made on used guns and mounting scopes and other items sold. My suspision now, is that it is the same except on auction sites selling new guns? It appears to me that new guns on the sites have a bit higher markup much closer to manufacturers suggested retail. I don't understand this, for if a seller has a larger customer base he should sell more faster, but it apparently is working for them? It keeps me solidly shopping in local shops though!

On Walmart I don't know much as it is inconvenient for me to shop there, but ask the person behind the counter to measure L.O.P. for you and see what they say!?
