    The Raptors are ~$70 on sale, and $85.99 regular retail. $16 dollar difference, oh noes!!!

    Geissele has nicer texture grip to it when pulling.

    I'll by more Raptors, not another geissele.
    I mentioned this concern on the first page. I don't know why they didn't make it more blunt. Not everyone wears body armor.

    Your $16 point is duly noted.

    OK, smarty pants. ^^^ How about you offer up some substantiation on this, and then we can talk about the validity of your non-point point. ^^^^

    Which part(s) confuse you?

    Do $50-$100 charging handles sell at full retail price? Yes.

    Do $50-$100 charging handles sell more/faster at a discounted price? Yes.

    Are there people that specifically wait for these $50-$100 charging handles to go on sale before buying them? Yes.

    Are there people that wait for these sales to 'gorge' and purchase multiples at one time on sale? Yes.

    What is the proof of this? The fact that these sales continue to happen, the fact that these charging handles have sold out when on sale (as opposed to not on sale), and all the related posts if not threads about it.

    Google it.

    Yeah, some people clip coupons, and some don't. Price tolerance. What's your point? Everything is overpriced because some people wait for a sale or a coupon?

    If the only times your overcrowded $50-$100 charging handle inventory traditionally moves if not sells out completely is due to discounted sales...
