Hi,
I am frustrated because there are no sites that will allow me to freely advertise my guns online. Craigslist forbids it. Ebay forbids it. Gunbroker, Gunsamerica and other large sites make me pay to post and force me to involve an FFL. :banghead:
I live in South Carolina where a person to person sale of a gun is perfectly legal. There is a paper here called the "iwanna" which advertises guns and bows but even they have restrictions on "assault" type weapons such as an Ak47. I believe they deleted my advertisements when I tried to list a 75 round drum magazine for one. I think it's stupid! If it's legal I want to buy it and sell it from my personal collection.
I am seriously considering (very seriously considering)... (like within a day or two) building a site for South Carolina residents to advertise their guns on for free. This would facilitate a healthy commerce of buying an selling for gun enthusiast and cut down on prices due to advertising and middleman cost.
Before I do so I am checking to make sure that this would in fact be legal. I understand there are laws restricting the sale to known felons and other people who do not qualify to buy firearms. But... to my knowledge... there is no law forbidding the ADVERTISEMENT of guns to the good people who are qualified to buy such firearms.
