I have purchased a couple of guns from Bud's. Yes they are kind of slow, but with the free shipping, the prices were competitive, even with the transfer. In the case of my second purchase, online stores were the only place I could find what I was looking for. I will probably make my next purchase local though.
As far as CTD is concerned, I can't seem to get over the prices they were charging for ammo during the shortage when Obama was elected. Yes, prices were higher everywhere, but theirs were way out of line. I guess they sold it to somebody.

I used grabagun.com and they were awesome. Shipped in three days. Received in two. Do the standard shipping for 5.99. I guess usps requires firearms to be delivered two day mail.
Got my xdm 45 compact for 571 and paid my local Ffl dealer 60 for background and doc fees (NV background is 25 by itself)

Bud's website isn't the greatest. I find I have MUCH more luck walking in with a wad of cash, and walking out with a deal.

My buddy told me yesterday that in the not too distant past Bud's didn't even have SSL set up? That's pretty pathetic.

Yeah, my CC was compromised shortly after a purchase about a year ago. I took a chance at a Mossberg 930C about two weeks ago as they were the only ones with it in stock. So far, no issues, but I won't be using that CC for a while to make sure it's clean.

They are BIG on cash. If you walk in with cash, you can easily get $50-$75 off of the listed price. I'm not sure how many of the actual "buds" stores there are though?

I'm sure they're big on cash. Unfortunately, that will not work for most of their customers.
