Private Gun Show

I was talking to a friend the other day about some guns I was considering selling due to having multiple rifles in .222 - .223 and 22-250. He said his FIL was interested and could they come by. So I laid a selection out on a workbench under my carport and he and his Dad and FIL came by. Wound up making $1000.00 off of all of them by the time they were through.

I did Texasguntrader Monday, put up an inline muzzle loader; couple of Ruger Vaqueros in .357 and an Ak-47. Sold them for right at $2000, I'm sure we are both happy people today.

I'm reinvesting in suppressors.

Whatcha gonna spend your new found wealth on?

I don't get it...where was the government involved?

You're not seriously trying to tell me that you offered goods to people, who then made choices on their own regarding quality, price, and appropriateness, and who furthermore made a decision on their own as to what was in their best interest with nobody in the government involved?

It sounds to me like you are describing a "free market" but I didn't think those existed anymore.

All kidding aside...it's nice when it works like it should. You're happy, the customer is happy, and you made a little money too.

Be careful lest the gummit decide you are "dealing" and then they WILL become involved.

Agreed, nice to see some guns find a new home where they may be "exercised" more than they might have been in your cold, dark safe.
