What is your solution? If a person sees your gun as you're on your way into or out of a gun store, and he offers to (legally) buy your gun, you must say:when every body and their brother thinks it's o.k. to conduct their private gun sales, sans commision, on the gun store property
1. No: since we met in the parking lot like this, it's an unethical sale. If only I had been walking to the post office carrying my rifle, and bumped into you there!
2. Sure, let's agree on a price, and then let's go in and see what the dealer's fee is for meeting on his property: we'll split it!
3. I see a public sidewalk over there; let's go there and talk about it.
Perhaps the store owner would be decent enough to post a sign: "I get a 10% cut of any sales agreed to on my property!" Then all he'd have to worry about is enforcement...but he'd have the ethical high ground.
I've noticed that gun owners often have other things for sale: trucks, motor cycles, etc. Suppose I see the "for sale" sign on a truck while I'm at the gun store, I guess if I buy it, the dealer gets a cut of that, too?
