We value an open and transparent marketplace; if items are legal to buy and sell in an unrestricted manner we allow them on our site
You can't have it both ways, darlin' Terri (why do I picture a little heart thingy over the i?)After careful consideration our executives and our Trust and Safety team determined, that while legal, any item required to fire a gun has no place on eBay.
However,
there are some items that while legal, may not be safe for our
marketplace. In these instances, our applicable policies go beyond the
law to ensure that our marketplace is safe.
brownells.com has a bunch of replacement parts also
I told them I'd be closing my ebay and paypal accounts, and that I'd use a combination of Craigslist and firearms auction sites going forward.
They may be the 900# gorilla, but they're not the only game in town.

Possibly the only CEO ever described as anti-establishment, a communist, and a socialistic anarchist, since 2000 Jim has led craigslist to be the most used classifieds in any medium, and one of world's most popular websites, while maintaining its public service mission, non-corporate vibe, and staff of 20 or so.
Formerly served as lead programmer and CTO, contributing craigslist's multi-city architecture, first search engine, discussion forums, flagging system, self-posting process, homepage design, personals, and best-of-craigslist.
Before joining craigslist, directed web development for Creditland (defunct) and Quantum. In 1994-95, built a terabyte-scale database-driven website for ICPSR at U-Michigan.
Graduated summa cum laude from Virginia Tech with a bachelors in biochemistry, and studied medicine and classics at the University of Michigan.
However, there are some items that while legal, may not be safe
for our marketplace. In these instances, our applicable policies go
beyond the law to ensure that our marketplace is safe.
