I'm sure this won't be too interesting to most of you but my first experience with buying a gun online isn't going too well.
I put out some WTB threads at various forums for a Ruger GP100 and got a response on one of them. Exchanged emails (about 10 or so in all) with a seller who was very nice to deal with. He had his FFl mail the gun over last week using 4 day service. I call his FFL with the number he gave me just to confirm that it was sent. I call my FFL yesterday and they say they don't have anything for me.
I email the seller and he calls his FFL and gives me a tracking number that his FFL gave him when he inquired why it hadn't arrived yet. I go to the post office today with the tracking number and they say the package was delivered Jan 2nd!
I'm pissed so I go to the FFL's shop and they're out for today due to a local gunshow. So either some mailman decided he wanted a shiny new gun or the FFL lost it or maybe is even selling it at the gunshow today who knows!
All i know is that I don't have it and I have to wait till Monday for some more answers
