Where is a great place to buy a higher end Sporting gun, close by? Looking at a Blaser F-3

Blaser is not higher end it’s about the top. Lol. At least in my book short of a true custom.

There’s a guy on the campfire that’s on the Blaser pro team. I bought a gun from him. Nice guy. I bet he can hook you up with the info you need if not a better deal all together.

Not sure about great place to buy but have seen quite a few Blasers at Rays.

This might help Dealer Link

Here Buzz. I expect a finder's fee.

Jeremy, if they have 2, you get first pick

No, you first. I insist. Age before beauty and all...

Buzz,

if you are just looking in general for a fancy shotgun:

Also, look at gunsinternational.com, which is like gunbroker but tends to be the place for the fancy guns more so than gunbroker.

The prices with most dealers on gunsinternational are very negotiable.

I know you won't because you never listen to me but this is the deal:

Attempt to find a used one at a decent deal.

Blaser F3 is not at the top of shotguns...Perazzi and Kreigoff would be higher than Blaser...but no doubt it's up there.

High roller

If this is a one upper thread I can't participate. It started out way over my head.

Some people had better sense to go into well paying careers rather than to go into law enforcement. Unlike us.

Kreigoff and Perazzi is only for your budget Kolar too

Yep, had I been smarter when I was younger maybe I could hang with some of these guys in one up.

I agree

Buzz is just a high roller that likes good stuff

Meh, Perazzi and Kreighoff dont even come close to high end.

Check with Fossil Pointe, they are a Blaser dealer.

D'Arcy Echols has no peer, IMHO.

Have Michael make you a one of a kind.

I can't afford that stuff, I shoot a Caesar Gureini.

TDK - I'm talking production guns not a beautiful piece of work like you make.

Echols doesn’t make shotguns. He’s phenomenal, but there are numerous craftsman who equal or surpass him. Peter V Nelson(retired), Peter Hofer, Dorleac, and the duo Hartmann & Weiss come to mind.

You want to sell me that CG for what you paid for it yet?

CG's are nice as are the Zoli's

Im out. Ill just stick with my Remington 12 ga wingmaster...

I missed the shotgun part. Sorry.

Well, I got my 725 Sporting and Benelli SBE III with me heading to see Robert Paxton. I will have to sell or trade both to afford the Blaser.

I'll report my findings this afternoon for those WGAS

There goes the 2 rounds of sporting this afternoon, new gun = learning curve

Can I at least fondle it if you bring it to the league shoot?
