Ebay

[WheelsUpHeelsUp]

As they term it "It's the right thing to do", the LW bastards are putting a halt to most gun parts. Ammo components, triggers, barrels, magazines ect are going to be a thing of the past come mid August. I do a lot of business with them in the gun parts and classic car categories. Enough that I can splurge on groceries and toys once in awhile.
I would love to find a serious competitor to do my listings with. :icon_rage

Do you understand the words that are coming outta my mouth‽

Oh, okay I get it now, Translation:
Ebay is going to stop selling weapons parts... that really sucks... fvcking pansies...

gunbroker.com is like ebay except all firearms. Other than that a true competitor to ebay I have yet to find.

Craigslist works well up here in the NW

One more reason to eschew eBay for ANYTHING unless it's absolutely necessary ... and most things aren't.

10 years ago or so, I purchased several PRIMO collectible firearms on eBay as it was a big market with lots of offerings ... then they stopped doing that -- to save the children, I am sure, as the then eBay president & founder was butt buddies with Hillary and eBay thus dropped all firearms sales during mid-Clinton administration ..... just a coincidence, I am sure .... but they kept selling & making money off parts, etc. ... I guess they're big enough now to pass on the chump change they make on parts.

ALSO ... consider NEVER using PayPal for anything, if at all possible. They are vehemently anti-gun and will FREEZE your account if they discover that you have used it to make legitimate and legal purchase(s) of firearms online ....

I would say Craigslist can work well for you unless they also ban sale of gun parts. It's much more losely regulated though so it probably won't be an issue. Craigslist is very no frills also so it seems a little hokey at first, but it works very well...and no getting sniped in the last 4 seconds on your items that are in auction format.

Sure, positively, right: especially if you want to buy BB guns or perhaps move up to a big bore AirSoft .... ??? :sleep_125

Like I said, it's no frills so it tends to appear "college-ish" but if you have something to sell, there will be people there to buy it. I've sold plenty of practical items to regular, respectable adults. Craigslist has always been the same looking, but nonetheless it is changing. It's not just for college kids looking for $85 couches anymore.

Auction arms will probably be better anyway...just suggesting that there are diverse outlets...and...I'm just a guy on my couch banging on a keyboard.

Right ... I get it. But we're not talkin' about buying couches that cost > $85 ... we're talkin' about buying firearms and firearms part ... yes???

yea, I saw that too. A buddy of mine wrote them a letter; he was told the halt was due to the idea that some of the stuff used in the recent Virginia Tech slayings were bought off ebay.

Pantywaists.

I couldn't get anything meaningful off your link -- but if it was directed @ contributions to AW's ... I don't know the answer. That's a tough one ...

..... but the criticism of PayPal is still valid -- and "they" are actively trying to impede our 2nd Amendment rights, because of their political or social viewpoint(s) .... so what's the answer???

Principle or expedience ???

Yea....AW contributions. I hear you...no easy answer. I could, for the benefit of all, put my savings account info up for folks to direct deposit to. I'm willing to make this sacrifice for the good of the organization.

Honestly though, till your post, didn't realize Paypal was so anti-gun. Will have to do some more research on the issue.

Try this for starters from an online firearms auction page -- the author is a good-to-go guy ... absolutely a no B.S seller.

"....NO PAYPAL! I ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL!! Paypal’s terms do not allow the purchase or sale of any firearms, ammunition or high capacity magazines….period!! For more info, please go to their website and follow the links: user agreement / acceptable use / firearms, weapons and knives policy. If you use them for a gun transaction and they find out, they will close your account & freeze your money for 6 months. How do I know? They did it to me! I WILL NOT SUPPORT AN ANTI-GUN COMPANY!! ..."

Gun Broker is one of the best places I have seen.

Guns America is also a great place. http://www.gunsamerica.com/ there is no bidding though. Its kinda like craigs list in that you deal with the seller directly.

edit: just realized A4's beat me to it.
