Gun Broker

I am a little lost about how you purchase from sites like gunbroker.com. Do you have to have a FFL, or can you make arrangments with your local gun shop? If you do arrange something with a gun shop, what do they charge for this service?
:confused:

You must have an FFL or have the gun shipped to somebody that has, such as a gun shop. Most dealers charge $25-30 for this service.

Unless you hold a C&R license. That is easy to get.

C&R is good, as long as you don't try to sell the stuff you get at a profit....the ATF will get pissed.....

Isn't the C&R only for firearms 50+ years old?

Any info on how to get a C&R?

I am not sure what qualifies, but they will list it as C&R. Some SKS's are on the list. I am unsure what they use as qualifications for C&R eligible.

Any firearm 50 years old or older, from the current date, is C&R eligible. Just looked it up. You need to order the form from the ATF. Costs $30 for the license.

So you would not be able to buy a new handgun with the C&R?

I think you also need a letter from a local Sheriff or Chief of Police stating you are a citizen in good standing.

I find that to be a bunch of BS. Some anti-gun Sheriff or PC could nix you because they believe nobody but the government should own firearms.

New as long as it was made prior to 1959.

No, gun must be over 50 years old.

I own a coupla pristine Revolution-era muskets......powder horns, rods...whole setup...they're in a "safe place."

Waiting for the day I might need to trade 'em for something uber-valuable.
