CZ, I wouldn't be surprised if you sold a bunch more houses than the good/best gun market can sustain, but I'd bet the gross profit margin is quite a bit higher than 10% on gun sales. They probably just don't sell like hot cakes.

John's got a point, but you yourself just said you're willing to exchange 'numerous emails' before you make your business decision. Some markets even make contractors more service oriented. Some folks just have a different way of looking at it.
