C&R handguns in stock.

[Rapture]

Anyone know of any central MD IP's whom carry a decent selection of C&R handguns in stock? Not really sure what I am looking for, but I would like to take a look at a few and see what's out there. I am in the Ellicott City area. Thanks.

Why don't you ask in the Industry Partners section instead??

I reported this in case you didn't. So they should find it shortly.

Holy crap, I saw the Browning Medalist in the page for about $1500.00! I had the same thing, a couple years older (1966 manufacture?), and at the time I bought it I paid about $85 for it with the case and all the accessories shown.

You are looking for a CZ82.

Yes, yes he is; a CZ82......

I'm recommending that you visit this gun shop - with a caveat. The Gun Center, in Frederick, does tend to have a rather large selection of C&R handguns - most in what I would call "good or better" condition. That's what you were looking for, as I recall - a place to look over a decent selection.

The caveat? I consider their prices rather high and they don't seem willing to bargain a bit.

I don't see any problem in this being posted here.

It wasn't here originally. W/C I think.

There have been a few at Scott's Gunsmithing (I picked up a P08 Luger there myself). Also, several at Barts last week and a couple at A&D.

Ah! Now it makes sense. I thought that the OP put it here to begin with, and he was being nudged to put it in the IP forum. I think it works here, as well as there ... maybe more.

P.S. - I agree that a CZ-82 would be a good thing to buy right now for someone wanting to pick up a first C$R handgun (*giggle* ... isn't it cute when they think they'll only be buying one or two? )

buying a handgun in MD defeats the purpose of C&R. Why should you pay a fee?

In many respects you have a point. However, a good deal is still a good deal. When I bought the above mentioned P08, I thought it a good deal. Also picked up a couple C&Rs from another MDS member. Good enough prices that I gladly paid the $10 fee (just $10 for 2 guns on 1 transfer, BTW). One advantage of buying C&Rs within Maryland is that you can physically handle and see the firearm before buying and fairly often you can get them without the emblazoned import marks. Also, not all C&R are handguns AND C&R are exempt from HQL requirements. I know a couple people are buying only C&R type handguns in Maryland to avoid the HQL.
