Selling guns online
« on: April 18, 2011, 11:50:18 AM »
I've got some guns I don't need anymore and I want to sell them. I've seen some of the online places where you can post an ad, and that seems like a good way to do it. Can you recommend a good site to place an ad on? Also, I'd appreciate any pitfalls or advantages you may have encountered using these sites. Thanks.

How about right here at GBs???

That's where I would do it if I ever decided to sell a gun, which I likely will never do...  You have to go through the same FFL bs anyway so why not do it here... And there is no fee to do it here...

Make sure your ducks are in a row on packing and shipping.  Get good boxes and find out how much it will cost ahead of time so you can tell the buyer.  Also, some FFLs wont send a copy to an individual, so you might have to go through one as a seller.
