    Tikka does set the bottom price for their dealers. Dealers caught selling them cheaper lose their ability to sell them.

    So what kind of extras would tilt the deal in favor of the online seller?

    I.e. Steep parts discount?

    This is great information guys!

    I definitely don't want to become like the businesses listed that shall not be named.  Their customer service is horrible.

    My goal is to create a way to sell our in house products in a one stop shop type of environment now that I have the direct relationship with Tikka/Beretta. 

    Like Eric said, there is no margin in the guns themselves.  However, I can steeply discount my products and services in a package deal. 

    Between the failure of the Group Buy last year and the constant delays because our new mill keeps breaking down, the last thing I want to do is ruin more relationships.  At the end of the day, I want people to look forward to doing business with MT, and not loathe it because we're the only source of parts.

    Tikka does control the pricing of all of their rifles except the standard T3 Lite.  Quite frankly, I don't know how brick and mortar gun shops make it on the low margins.

    So I figured I'd ask you Tikka nuts how you would prefer it to work.  ;D

    Great info.  Thanks!

    So what about rifles in which the manufacturer controls pricing so everyone has to price them the same?

    Would it come down to availability?

    Is the FFL transfer worth the hassle?

    The main thing I don't like about the forum is the difficulty in uploading pictures.

    The rest is cosmetic

    Thanks guys!  It's taken 2 years and 5 developers to finally get my vision online. The old site was made by me at 3am and looked like it!

    There's still some odds and ends that need to be finished, but the meat is there.

    Next, I need to fix this forum. Is it just me, or can it be a little cumbersome to use?

    There's going to be at least a $100 price increase. That could detract people on the fence between a Remmy and a Tikka.

    They are close, but that $100 could make the difference in gaining new market share.

    Beretta is trying to convince Tikka to keep the standard T3 because of the price point it fills here in the states.

    We'll see what happens.

    Tikka Shooters Forum favicon icon 15 Bullseyes

    So the “Low-pro” mag was a bust.  It was advertised as a 5 round and flush mounted…

    It's just a standard CTR Mag with a block in it to limit the number of rounds that can be loaded…

    Too bad I can't send them back!

    Hi Agar

    The ones sent here are all 22″.  I could cut one down for you if you like.

    So according to our Beretta rep, the T3X will be roughly $100 more than the standard T3.  No ETA on the US receiving these…

    It is still unclear if Tikka will keep both models so they can compete with a lower priced model.
