Stan, Anyone who buys and sells 100 guns in a few years is a bit more than a hobby enthusiast. Sure, they like the guns, but they like the money more. I think Bob should be banned from selling guns here since hes at least as much as a self admitted hobby gun dealer here, just like Ed Good who does not list his guns here. In terms of Art Isaacson, he clearly lists what he does and does not misrepresent himself; so no sentimentality there. . He does not list guns for sale here so thats another story....hes a pro, so sentimentality is likely not part of the equation. My point is, theres no sentimental attachment in what Bob does, its purely profiteering. If he did the work himself as a hobby it might be different.
Buzz, IIRC that 100 gun figure was spread over about 20 years. A far cry from the implications of your choice of words a few.
And so what if it is pure profiteering? What business is it of yours? Or whether he does the work or hires out? I dont do any of the work on my guns. I like them too much to subject them to my ham-fistedness.
Is there something wrong with profit? Have you joined the ranks of the Socialists. Or is profit only acceptable when it meets your standards on how it was achieved?
jOes idiot comments were to be expected. Im surprized at the effort you made to run Bob out of town on this subject. On this thread and Bobs first thread on this gun. Seems like something seriously personal.....not just a philosophical difference.
Maybe you could be upfront about that instead of giving us the self serving BS that you might have behaved differently if Bob did the work himself.
