Does an ffl get anything else discounted besides just firearms? Like holsters or optics and accessories?

When I make a purchase online at say Palmetto State, do I just enter my ffl # or how do they know to give me a discount?

Anyone with a sales tax permit can get wholesale pricing (with minimum order $$$) at just about any supplier/distributor/wholesaler.....no FFL required.

An FFL# isn't a discount code.
You'll have to contact the vendor to see if they offer a dealer discount.
(Not all retailers give other dealers a discount, unless its for a quantity purchase.)

Ok thanks for clearing that up. Every dealer will obviously have different minimum orders also. Thanks for the replies.

Midway used to - not any more.
Brownell's does - but often it's not significant
Your best bet is to have dealer accounts with distributors like RSR, Sports South, Bill Hicks  Jerry's Sports Center, etc.

I'm a pawnbroker but I stock some firearms accessories. I buy holsters etc. from RSR but the discounts usually aren't that great. Often I can find online retailers selling stuff at pretty close to my "dealer cost." I sell accessories and AR parts mostly to guys who A.) want it now, B.) want to touch it first or C.) haven't yet discovered this thing called the Internet. I can't compete on price. I can only compete on "I've got it."
