So where are the best prices on these suckers??  And maybe other mold guns if they are of good quality.  I've only ordered a couple and payed the full $50 at bluegunstore.   Should I look elsewhere to save a few bucks??

If it matters any, I'll be ordering a full size 1911 here in the next day or so.  

Thanks everyone!!!

I order mine from knife kits, they 40 a piece plus shipping so if you only buy one it is still 50 but if you buy more it is cheaper. They have a wide variety, but they also tend to not hold much inventory so sometimes they are out of stock of the one I need.

And they don't list the kimber 5" 1911 in cocked and locked.....      :(

I gave up trying to find a reliable source other than Rings. I can either order from XYZ, let them place the order from the same place, takes them 2-3 weeks or more and I saved $5 or $6. I'll gladly pay that much for fast, freindly, knowledgeable service, which I've ALWAYS received from John and the others.

That said, If there is something I need, my first stop is eBay. I've picked up a few reasonable deals there.

Yeah, I like Rings.  Pretty quick most of the time.  And I like the aluminum molds from duncans - though they're about the same money ($50+ shipping).

But I wouldn't put too much stock in ebay.  I just checked -- guns which are $50 (give or take) about everywhere else are listed on ebay for $70 and up.  If you're going to check ebay (don't hurt nuthin' to check) I recommend putting "rings" in the search (there are a LOT of "blue guns" which are nowhere near correct size) and then limit the price to max $50.  Above $50 you can get them brand new in a number of places, so unless it's one that just simply isn't available ... not smart to pay more for the same thing.  And putting $50 in teh max price will save you wading through listings meant for a different kind of 'dummy' :)

The P320 molds I just paid about $50 for -- are $69.99 on ebay.   Not good.

On the other hand, if you need a mold for a PX4 storm, those are currently available for $20 +shipping.. though, it dont' say if that's the .40 or the .45 (do they make the full size in a 9m?)

In the search on ebay I just did only the P320 was above $60. Most were $54-$57 shipped. But isn't shipping free at Blue Gun Store?

I am trying to find the P938 cocked and locked but can't find it anywhere. It is not even listed at the Blue Gun Store. But it is on the 2017 Catalog PDF. I guess I am just going to have to call Rings.

I haven't seen the 2017 pdf (still got the old version). 

But as for "free shipping", maybe see that other thread about this.  If you're buying ONE gun, not a big difference one place to the next.  Buying more than one- that "freee" shipping begins to stick it to a guy ;)

This is the $20 PX4 Storm off eBay. It looks new to me even though listing says used.
