We’re in the process of beta testing our new website and have sent links to a couple of you for your input and we greatly appreciate you taking the time to spool through it. We were having some difficulties and we decided to move off of the current web program and onto a different one. (I’ll leave the techno stuff to Nate.) The new website should be friendlier on older and new versions of Mozilla & IE.
Just briefly, one of the benefits of using Nates IT, is that not only is he a techno geek (we say this affectionately of course) but he’s also a gun toting, 2nd Amendment advocate, loves the USA, has an M1-A, and in general has the same passion for firearms as we do. As much as I would like to take credit for layouts or different things you see on our site, generally it’s Nate taking an idea and coming back with something so unexpected that really enhances the idea and he also has several of his own that we would never have had the creativity to do ourselves.
Another change of direction we’re implementing is that we will no longer post on Guns America (nothing wrong with their site) and we’re minimizing the amount of items we list on Gun Broker (again nothing wrong with their site). We found the cost associated with these two sites and managing multiple auctions was requiring a lot of busy work. Additionally with the auction fee’s you could easily add a minimum of $15 - $50 or more to the cost of the item versus just calling us up. However, we will still list items like stripped receivers or other items that we have a large quantity of out on GB.
Since we are a paid advertiser on Midwest Gun Trader we are going to keep this site up dated with our current listings. Since this is a non-auction site and we’ve paid the advertising fee’s we list our products at the same price as you will find on our web site. We’ve also had an excellent response locally and nationally. To this extent we have also become a paid advertiser on Texas Gun Trader since we have a large market down in the Lone Star state. (Most of the Texan’s we deal with are already cowboy’d up so they naturally gravitate to our site.)
With these changes it will allow us to focus on our core business and passion which is building custom AR-15 and AR-10 style rifles, suppressors, and handguns that fit with our products.
