Post by: homersipes on July 04, 2012, 01:42:58 PM

anyone know how to sell a firearm online?  trying to get rid of a 300 winmag but have no clue how to sell it, my ebay account got closed, for suspicious activity, didnt know selling a harley was suspicious but whatever, and craigslist dont allow firearms.

Gunbroker.

I'd sooner use a corkboard at a local club or a local gun shop.

What's the specs of the rifle?

There are gun auctions sites, gun equivalent of ebay, you can list guns there, sell them, but only ship to an FFL. 

I use gunbroker.com

Find a local gunshop that will sell it on consignment.

Any more information on it?  I've been causally eyeing 300 win mags lately.

I bought a new Remington Model 710 .300 WinMag with Bushnell scope a few years ago at Cabellas. It was marked $369. With the coupon they sent, plus the sale price, mail-in rebate and the discount for putting it on my Cabellas card I paid $44. :neener:

RPM glad it was you that bought that 710 and not me. I wouldn't have taken a 710 if someone gave it to me. Mostly internal plastic parts and a pot cast area on the back where the bolt slides in...nope not ever going to own that POS.

Am interested in the 300 that the OP has though; pictures and information would help.

Homersipes,

You looking to trade on another gun or just need the cash?  Must gun shops will make trades if you are looking for another gun.
