[QUOTE="dodgefreak8, post: 555295, member: 4965"] Like I previously stated I never thought the prices weren't worth the work. I own my own plumbing business so I understand the concept of overhead. My equipment is very expensive. My question was why they are $1000.00 over the price of what I can get the parts and pay them to do what I can't. I wanted to know what that money went to. I don't need $10000 worth of equipment if I pay them to do the barrel work and chambering. There's been many good explanations as to this cost and they mainly seem to stem around the stock. I now have a better grasp as to what SOME of the $$$ goes towards. I understand we all have to make a living. I am constantly struggling with my prices to give my customers the best bang for their buck. If there is one thing I have learned it's that there is a fine line between making a living and ripping people off :) Now after saying that if people are comfortable paying high prices for things it usually means the work is worth the $$$. thanks for all the comments [/QUOTE]
