Gunbroker.com Questions

Post by big bend gyrene »

From old posts, know that a number of board members have used the site to purchase.

Would greatly appreciate it if anyone can explain the process... I understand the bidding is similar to e-bay, but what I'm not sure I understand is how the shipping/working with FFL process works. Greatly appreciate it if any board member can walk through the process.

Also interested to hear how those of you who have dealt with gunbroker.com rate the experience. Happy with results? Any bad experiences? ANY tips you have will be greatly appreciated! :thumbup:

You pay via seller thru the site via CC (plus no tax), and your local FFL faxes the seller their license. You pay the local FFL guy a $25 fee and go get your gun the day it arrives. I just them for the first time last month and it was great. Got a buy now price and it was super low. I used DSH Firearms. Dawn was great. Paid for gun on Tuesday (on gunbroker.com) and picked up from them on Friday.

I personally haven't bought from it, but my friend buys and sells a lot on there. Nothing but good things to say about it.

Redfin, how did you pick a FFL? See that they identify some through gunbroker.com, but that's really my key question. Just not sure how to contact/work with the FFL.

The tally gun forum recommended them, check out their web site. They also do lots of government training.

After you purchase, you just call them (DSH) and give them the fax number of the dealer you bought gun thru. They take care of the rest and call you when gun arrives in tally.
