Still cheaper than borrowing money from me
do you have the same 'need' for the firearm as you do for a place to live or a means to get to/from work or school?
it's also possible to have a credit card and pay off the balance every month to avoid interest charges. that way, YOU'RE getting a loan from the credit card company for approx. a month rather than paying them.

More like did you get a loan for your ATV, snowmobile, Harley Davidson ect... no they are not necessities but majority of people finance these. People who use this service..I doubt are financing a Ruger 10/22 but rather going for a big purchase like a KAC AR with high end optics. Firearms will retail a heck of alot more value over time then any motorized or electronic device. Like all credit situations be wise about it but do what "you" want to do and not what some guy you don't know "tells you to do" on the net.

I recently bought my first motorcycle. I had a choice of liquidating some of my investments and paying cash for the bike, or financing it. My investments earn about 2% more post-tax in dividends than the interest on my bike. Over the 2-year term I would have LOST ~$150 if I'd paid cash up front. I'm actually MAKING money by financing instead of paying up front. This is an example of where strategic use of debt is actually beneficial.
"Debt" is a evil word to many people, when it's only part of the story. There's absolutely nothing wrong with taking on debt. The key is doing it in a smart, structured way as part of your complete financial plan.

Why is it that every dealer thats posted that they now offer financing that it turns the thread into an economics class, I for one wont finance a gun but only becouse the wife wont let me otherwise id be rolling around naked in pile of kac's and bmg's
Go read that shlock to a soldier or a fireman or a football player or a bloody barber Theyll all knock your "this" right down your throat while sippin a beer and eating chicken wings.Then wipe their wee fingers on your pretty little pouch"
Any more debates on peoples budgets will result in the deletion of posts going forward.

There was a thread like this with 20 pages of why you should or shouldn't use financing to purchase a gun.
It's up to the buyer how they want to purchase their firearm!!!!
