Kevins Guns

[Brett Farley]

I lived in FL about 25 years ago and was fortunate to hunt some of the GA. Plantations. He’s always been high priced even back then. His business, his perogative. As someone said his clientele have deep pockets and he probably gets some of those crazy prices. Makes me chuckle.

I think the more appropriate response would be " you hadn't met anyone from Texas that would ADMIT they didn't know how to shoot a gun" .

Easy Boys!! Some of us Texas boys can accidentally knock “sumthin outta the air” with a scattergun!

I've shot Skeet with several over the years that were rather decent . They usually had an All American pin of some sort on their cap or shell bag .

Thanks!! One of these days I am hoping I can find the time to travel and shoot with some of the “ regulars” on our site! For the fin of the shoot, and to put a voice and a face to the posts!!

Spent some time in Texas and you need to figure which generation you are speaking to......the old generation that earned that old money are often some super guys but some of the later ones want to own it just to show it off and will pay whatever it takes to have it, whether it is a gun or a high dollar Shelby Mustang convertible. I can see some who would pay ridiculous prices just to show off a Parker but I enjoyed knowing the first generation and some of them could shoot like Doc Holiday.

Just hand me sumthin’ that goes bang when you light the fuse.....and i’ll be okay. If it is is “purty” I might aim a ‘lil better, but not much......

Well, just goes to show you that if he has been around that long, obviously knows something about his niche market and maybe submarket. Like I said if he is getting some of the prices for the guns he has in inventory its hard to say if that is good or bad. Good if your selling, bad if your buying. But the sell of one or two or maybe even a dozen guns does not make a market.

Gut tells me the person that is buying his guns are not necessarily the same ones that buy off the sites. As far as him going to shows and events. He might sell a gun there, but he is probably looking to buy low and sell high, maybe astronomical is the right word.

BTW have never listed a gun but I think its maybe a low barrier to entry to list a gun on some of those sites. He might sell one there, if not its just another marketing piece for him. Again I don't know the guy and have no dog in the fight. I don't have a gun to sell him and I won't be buying from him anytime soon. But he does have some neat guns and a dedicated section devoted to SXS. So not a bad a thing.

The interesting thing is they sell guns . I have met people at the Fall Southern that have and continue to buy from them
