A QUESTION FOR SKEET?

Skeet, this is not intended in any way to be any sort of critism, it is just a couple of questions about marketing practices and sales strategies.

In many years of observation as a gun shop customer I have to be honest and say most gun dealers have little or no marketing plan.

I understand you sold five sidelocks, four being trade-ins and one was a new gun. My two questions are about how many sidelocks did you stock, new or used, and how many of those stocked traditional guns failed to sell?

If you sold all the sidelocks that came into the shop, that's a 100% sales record for a niche market product. If I were in the gun sales racket in that market, I'd have jumped on that market like a duck on a grasshopper.

Thanks,

12 Ga.
