Retail Firearm Pricing Trends Now Available Through FFL Insight

Marketplace Insight and Orchid Advisors launch 'FFL Insight' to enhance retail firearm pricing decisions. The subscription service is available to dealers who seek to understand changes in firearm pricing across the United States.

FFL Insight is a subscription based service that delivers national firearm pricing trends directly to dealers and pawnbrokers. Subscribers will receive a monthly e-report and have access to an online portal that provides category filters and sorting tools permitting customization relevant to their business.
"Marketplace Insight is the authoritative leader in firearm market intelligence," says Jon Rydberg, CEO of Orchid Advisors. "We are very excited to co-deliver our newest service "FFL Insight" to a nation of firearm dealers. The subscription provides access to a simplified subset of a much larger firearm market intelligence product that is currently used by several of the industry's largest manufacturers and wholesalers. The broader Marketplace Insight product permits advanced market analytics by geography, demographics and even offers statistical based forecasting models. FFL Insight emerged after our team received a strong level of interest from firearm retailers who attended NSSF's SHOT Show in Las Vegas, NV."

Those who are seeking to optimize their inventory balances, customer acquisition levels and profits will benefit from this intelligence. The following are examples of the data elements included in the FFL Insight subscription.

Condition (i.e., New or used firearms)
