I watched two guys walk away from KTP last month. Their gun traders wanted small $$$ for semiautomatic SIG .308s with scopes, extra mags and plenty of extras. Both guys walked. Given what shit they had, I wasn't surprised. They knew KTP was going to screw them.I hope they give you a good trade. Prices on everything at KTP have gone full retard.
Last time I was there (3 weeks ago), I didn't go to the gun section, it was a zoo.
KTP usually trades high by gun trades at dealers = hosed basically everywhere. You are always better off privsaling something than trading it in.Has anyone done any recent gun trading at Kittery lately? I haven't been up there in years but they would usually give me a good trade in value. Anybody?
From KTPs point of view that kind of stuff is pure shelf rot. 308 anything is not a commodity gun.I watched two guys walk away from KTP last month.

Stuff that rots for 3-4 months = wasted cash.
When I don't sell guns here, then go to KTP and get MORE or at least equal usually, which tells me my prices are good.I am not sure how some of you take weeks to sell the guns here, then go to KTP and get less money. That tells you your price was too high.
I haven’t been in KTP for a few years now but what a freaking mad house it was.i traded 10+ year old mass versions of ruger lcr and walther p22 and got more than enough in store credit to cover a new g43x, holster, extra mags and ammo last year. i was surprised because i really thought they would just laugh at the crippled mass handguns. the only part of the process that ticked me off was how long it took, an hour to figure out trade value plus another hour for background check, all this on a weekday late morning. i wouldn't attempt such a transaction on a weekend.
Not that busy last time I went in there, even though it was on a weekend. Grabbed a ticket, no waiting.......I had traded something and bought and was out of there in an hour. Longest time was the background check...which technically is not their fault.I haven’t been in KTP for a few years now but what a freaking mad house it was.
I find it funny because I’ve never walked into a store to buy a gun by window shopping. I always knew what I was going there for.
