[QUOTE=".30US, post: 994159, member: 19108"] I don't live off riflesmithing and don't plan to go full-time, either. Labor charges are matching up with my business plan. Nearly everyone gets Brownell's "discount," so I can't see charging more than what I pay for an item. If I get to doing enough volume with a particular supplier, then I'll pass that discount on to the customer, too. For the time being, the big parts houses seem to be the best prices around. I'll let Larry at MidwayUSA do the stocking, get the bulk of the volume discount, and take a little piece because he usually has what I need ready to ship so I don't have to wait or sink funds into keeping stock for a small business. I think I've spoken to just about every manufacturer and I don't see myself doing enough volume to take advantage of their discounts for the time being. [/QUOTE]
