Dave Riffle! That's a name from the past. Just looked at his website. Appears to not have been updated since 2019. His business was only 15 minutes away from our rental in FL. Years ago, tried to contact him about coming over to see his wares, and he couldn't have been more rude

Gun dealers baffle me. I contacted two dealers this week about guns they have listed on their website. One was using their "for more information form". No response. No "we will get back to you". Nothing. The other dealer I communicated with via email several times about a particular Parker and actually made an offer. Nothing. No further responses. No "thanks but no thanks". Nothing. I really don't know how half of them stay in business.

Oh God, I have had the perpetual ignoration (is that a word?) of my requests. Two highly touted dealers that have been recommended on this forum. But I keep looking at their websites and salivating...
