Lets try again: Group buy anyone?

Okay...
We started the notion of a group buy before, but it became too cumbersome to try and get a block of guns set aside without a firm idea of what mfg you guys were interested in, and what price you'd be willing to pay.


So!
A friend of mine is going to be joining the site, and guess what kind of business he owns? And what lines he carry's? He owns a very nice gun shop, and he carry's LWRC's, Armalites, LMT's, all of the good stuff.

Here is the deal. If we can get up a group of 10 to 15, he will score just about anything we want, at...
Cost...

Here is the rub. It'll take roughly 8 to 10 weeks to get to you. But he is obviously an FFL, so if you partake, he will ship directly to your FFL.

I know some of you have managed to find some LWRC's, and I think that I can speak for you when I say that they are amazing. We can get those. We can get just about mfg out there. Nice thing is that some of these could end up being small, short term investments!

Also! This doesn't have to be a one time deal. AND we can do group buys on pistols as well.

Glocks, Sigs, Springfields, Para, HK, all get real cheap real fast going this route.

Thoughts?

I am still in. I want an LWRC M6A2 with the 14" barrel... If not that, then the LMT piston gun. You know where to find me...

I always have room for another LWRC rifle (7.62 ?), or how about an 10mm, say the new one from STI or the "new and improved" BrenTen from Vltor.

We just need to agree on what to go for. We could do an LWRC now, and then a pistol later, or; run concurrent buys, just as long as people agree on make and model.

The entire transaction will get handled by my buddy, so that any $$ goes directly to him. I'm not gettin involved in that mess.

You've got my attention...can he get a MR762 or at least be one of the first few to receive shipment? Yes, I know it's HK but that's on my jonesin list right now.

I'd be in on a LWRC M6A2, M6A4, or PSD. I'd also be in on HK MR762 or HK USC.

Russ, I know of an USC that might still be available if you are interested.

I just bought a 16" LMT and I'm out of the market now. I'll be looking for a handgun in the future though.

Also, I would love a Sig P250 Tactical All Terrain Digital with the threaded barrel. And I never mind picking up another G19 or G23.
