JaeOne3345 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Ok the time has come. I am ready to purchase a new FN SLP MK1 with a 22 inch barrel. I've seen a couple used ones on Calguns.net but I really want a new one. I am in southern California and there don't seem to be many dealers for FN shotguns out here from what I know. Aside from places like Buds, can anyone recommend a good dealer for this firearm that is CA friendly and will be willing to ship to my FFL? Mods, please excuse me if this is totally inappropriate in this section. Move at will. Thanks for any help you all may assist me with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought one and the best prices I found were Bud's ($899 shipped) and CDNN. However, I just asked my local FFL if he could meet those prices and he did. He ordered them from Davidson's so I got a Lifetime warranty as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocMcG Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) CDNN is $845 and has free shipping on all FN products the last I checked. They are great to deal with. Here is their link. (Page 13 of their catalog.) Cheers, Kyle Edited January 10, 2011 by DocMcG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaeOne3345 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) Thanks guys. I am just getting into 3 gun, but everyone I have talked to so far has been super helpful. I really appreciate it. I should be fine going with the non rifled barrel for all around shooting right? At least this is what I gather from my time searching here.

ShooterSteve Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I purchased mine from CDNN also, and it was a very smooth transaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaeOne3345 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 I've got one on the way from CDNN as well Welp..I took everyone's CDNN advice..called..and.. FAIL..lol They will not ship any "defense style weapon" to my FFL in California. I asked why, since an FN shotgun is perfectly legal in California. "Company policy." This sucks. My roommate went through the same drama with one of his CMMG rifles. Guess I have to go with Buds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Yep, Bud's price was second best. Sorry man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assaulter Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Scottsdale gun club has them in stock. I don't know if they ship to CA though. $899 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaeOne3345 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 I appreciate your help. I have another contact in Texas who is seeing what he can do for me. I will know by tomorrow. Fingers are crossed. It sucks that our laws and guidelines for firearms are so jacked up here that people (I don't blame them) don't wanna risk anything.

JaeOne3345 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 I haven't given up yet. I have an FFL in Texas who I buy parts from quite often who has agreed to ship me one if he can buy one from his distributor. So it is looking hopeful.

Mbauer67 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I just bought my SLP through galley of guns, they had a great price and there are a lot of dealers you have have the gun shipped to. It was a truly great transaction, no issues to speak of. PM me if you have questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle O Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Good choice on the SLP, I have shot mine for a couple of years now, and still like it. Just do yourself a favor though and don't EVER play with a Salient M2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Page 13 of their catalog.) Cheers, Kyle CDNN just quoted 917 shipped for the MK1 Scottsdale Gun club was the same I ordered mine from Jeff Cockrum http://www.c-rums.com/ I live in Texas and wanted to buy from CDNN back when it was $845. Shipping was free, but tax was included. I knew I wanted C-Rums to do some work anyway, so I called and his pricing was in line with CDNN + the tax I would have paid as a Texas Resident. Since Jeff's pricing was similar, bought through him and having some work done before it is shipped out. Saves me some shipping back and forth and time without the gun is on the front end, not after I buy it. Jeff has been a pleasure to deal with, and I can not wait to get it in hand.

fastarget Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 smart approach, what other mods can he do other than welding the lifters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biga9999 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 smart approach, what other mods can he do other than welding the lifters? He is going to weld the lifter, put on the larger bolt release button and the open up the loading area. I am going to add a +1 extension and nordic charging handle. I trust myself to do those mods, and those mods only. Plus I know it will look a hell of a lot better if he grinds on it rather than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaeOne3345 Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Well, I achieved success! I got mine from scottsdale gun club for 918 shipped to my FFL, who then handled dros and transfer fees for 68.50 combined. I love shooting it. Shoots really soft. Now, I just gotta find a way to get to a match with someone! Any of you so cal guys near Chino/Corona/Riverside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't as I'm down in SD...I usually shoot USPSA at Pala. I do shoot all the 3 gun matches though...Piru and Pala are the best monthly ones.
