Will you buy a gun from a dealer? (With Poll)

[Mr10mm]

Sure. But about half the time I buy through a FFL I get a delay and have yet to get a call-back. First, middle and last names are as common as they can be. And it seems that lots of dealers are spooked enough about the delay they won't fall back on the 3-day rule. So, if I find it person-to-person I jump on it.

I kind of have the same problem. I usually get delayed a day or 2, sometimes no call back. Filling out a 4473 doesnt bother me but it sucks at gun shows when the dealer is from out of town or I am at a show like wanenmacher's and get delayed.

If your dealer will not follow the three day rule find a new dealer. I am pretty sure the dealer you are using is not a sponsor here. The sponsors here are awesome and I am sure they appreciate all the support we give them. I appreciate them.

Well my wife thinks your daughter is awesome. Really both your kids. Come to think of it she is pretty fond of your cat also. But your daughter does kick azz.

I always buy from a dealer because I have proof of purchase and I know it hasn't been used in a felony.

In the last year or so....Its usually cheaper to buy a new gun from a dealer versus a used gun from an individual. I guess some people think a used gun is worth more $$ without paperwork.

It doesn't really matter to me, I buy from whoever has what I'm looking for.

Blood guns are worth more

If you are on this website you are already on a list.

I prefer to buy from dealers as they are a point of contact if their are problems. You also never know who you are buying from and what they've done with the gun.

To the OP, the only reason I go to gun shows is to buy accessories and look for screaming deals on guns. In the Tulsa area, guns are priced very competitively and there is a pretty good selection.

I wouldn't buy from a dealer. I don't want the .gov knowing I'm into guns and all that 2A stuff. I like to keep it on the down-low.
