    Wanted adds

    What is the best method for finding particular firearms. Is there a wanted add that you can post somewhere informing readers that you are intrested in locating a firearm.
    Thanks

    Sorry, forum policy here doesn't allow buy/sell ads. Try Gunbroker.com or some of the other online gun sales places.

    The forum does not allow personal buy/sell ads. We can provide plenty of links for you though.

    What exactly are you looking for?

    Tried Gun Broker found no listings for the weapon I was looking for. Tried Guns America found one just like I wanted made offer and no reply. Found one on another site, called number provided and its someone elses number now. Tried emailing the seller with address provide...no reply. Any other sites I could try? Thanks

    Search as many forums as you can find that have a classified section

    I had a similar on line experience as you described vis a vis contacting sellers. I was trying to find a hard to find magnum. Finding one was not so hard but getting answers to questions not so much. Fire off an email and 2 days later getting the reply, "Sorry but the rifle has been sold." I finally just clicked buy it now. I'm sure I overpaid. By how much I'll never know. But I got what i wanted and went on down the avenue sans internet BS. I bought another rifle and had a very different experience. He is a dealer. Was very responsive and hands on. Gimme a minute to find his card and I'll PM you his info. But remember your mileage may vary. Here I keep my eye on our local paper's classified ads.

    Accuratereloading.com and 24hourcampfire.com both have very active classified sections.

    Great caliber choice. I have the 300 SAUM and love it. Ammo is a little expensive but not a problem if you reload.
    There are plenty of classified sections on the net incuding Armslist, that offers state by state listings. I think "Pennswoods" is still active too. WTB ads are very common in almost all classifieds and you can specify that you want a FTF. Try adjoining states also since the only thing that would be involved is transfer through an FFL in that state, to you. Sometimes worth the small extra cost of travel and transfer.

    Welcome to the forum.
