We have a local gun shop where.ypu can put your own firearms on consignment at your own price. The gun shop gets a little commission from the sale. Not sure if there's anything like that around you, may be worth doing if you had some high dollar firearms like Citoris or LC Smith doubles

Are you a Ruger fan? Maybe red pad rifles or revolvers?

Do not move into that apartment. You will Regret it. For many reason. I am sure there is a place somewhere that is just as nice and for the same price or cheaper. Don’t do it. Marty

The buyer buys them from you online, then you send them to his local FFL dealer.
Probably your best prices. I would not go the route of selling them to a dealer unless you want to leave a substantial amount of money on the table.

Selling the low end guns at a local "junk" auction will generally bring you more than the guns are worth, except that many of those auctions charge ridiculously high selling commissions; often times 25-35%.

ATF has reinterpreted the law again. They just killed a man in AR for private gun sales. The thugs want every sale to go through an FFL. Gun show would be the last place I would private sell.

I believe that new Executive Order goes into effect May 11th, so only a couple of weeks away.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Yep should have done an on-site auction. Guns get stupid prices fast at auctions. Saw a marlin 30-30 bring 2 grand at auction. Nothing special or different. Same gun new was about 900

I'm curious, what has improved so much regarding the potential for crime that you no longer have a need for the guns you acquired for home defense and conceal carry. Moving to a gated community, or going to prison? frown

There is no good way to sell guns It is like trying to auction off your children Or parting with your vital organs to the highest bidder I would go with an auction It would make it one transaction in the end Generally if you have a number of items to sell you might get a little bit of a break on the commission charged And if you sell the complete amount that you have to sell you realize that you need to see the big picture By that I mean some will sell for more than you thought and others will go for less But it all comes out in the Wash when it is added up

Guns do well at an auction. At least nice stuff does !

I glossed over it, but, I could care less about some stupid clause that includes guns, candles, meth, etc. The fact of the matter is there just ain't room.

What? can't bring guns to prison? I'm not selling everything. Just the 80% that ain't essential. When the house is complete, I'm sure my hoarding tendency will kick back in.
