Second Media, which as I recall is owned by the Toronto Star. They also bought another large NC gun forum a few month earlier.
Interesting.
Because "our" gun forum was very much supportive of 2A related activities we got fairly militant about being owned by a left leaning news organization.

I've used gunbroker a bunch over the past several years. I find it much better than armslist.
ar15.com has a very large and active classifieds section. You can't use a gmail, hotmail, yahoo, etc. email address to sign up though.
Gunbroker.com is the only one I've personally dealt with. Lots of stuff listed. I like them.
gunbroker , end thread
I am enjoying this thread.
I am late to the game and only have 2 entry level guns and 1 I bought of armslist no issue. Sucks you arent having any luck down there with it.
Surprised no one has contacted you about shipping it to a dealer somewhere else.
Hopefully those other forums help ya out!

I posted a bunch up on CSC as suggested- might do Gunbroker later today. The main thing is, I'm trying to sell them at a decent price and help fund the next project. I call it "fund recycling" and my wife doesn't seem to mind at all.
Everyone is always looking for a deal, and then when I go to sell something at a loss everyone scatters haha
As for people asking to ship, I do get requests for that. I start to steer away when they haggle on shipping prices and turn it into "you pay shipping." On a $1000+ deal, it's not a killer. When it's a $300 firearm, we're talking almost 20%... I also get a lot of flakes when I say I want a bill of sale signed by both parties.

Ah. Yea i could see how that would get annoying and make you want to give that way of doing it up.
Hopefully you find some buyers!

Interesting thread.
I have used Armslist twice. I sold my Beretta 96A1 that took about a few weeks to find a buyer. No problems.
I tried selling a brand new, never fired Mossberg 930 SPX Pistol Grip on Armslist with hundreds of rounds, couple of addons for well under retail. Nothing but scammers, low ballers and other retards.
If I decide to sell it again and find the right buyer I'll check out the sites listed in this thread.

I’ve moderated multiple debates on that forum on “whether to sign a BOS, or not”
Both sides of the argument are about evenly divided in terms of numbers of supporters and detractors, and both sides seem to feel equally strongly about it. As far as the law goes in the Carolinas, it is not required.
The most ardent 2a supporters will be the ones who are the most militant about not signing a BOS, but they arent flakes.
