Anyone know any sites that sell hand guns?

Question

Anyone have any good sites that sell hand guns and a decent price? Especially the Glock?

Answer 1

There are two web sites that are pretty good for locating firearms:

http://www.gunsamerica.com (recently redesigned...new design sucks)

http://www.gunbroker.com

I believe both web sites have a section that lists local FFL dealers that are willing to transer your weapon for you. I would contact all dealers in your area. The last internet purchase I made, the FFL transer fees ranged from $20 to $150. More often than not, established gun shops charge higher prices for the transfer fees. A person who has an FFL for "personal" use will usually charge you much less (some people get an FFL to get guns direct from the gun makers...but the ATF says they must try and make money with their FFL in order to keep it).

As the previous poster said, watch your prices. Besides the FFL fee on your end, you usually have to pay shipping as well. If a deal is too good to be true, it probably is. If something doesn't feel right with the deal, don't be afraid to use an escrow service. For about 1.5% (I think) of the sales price, a company will act as an intermediary. If the seller fails to ship the weapon, you just let the escrow service know and you'll get most of your money back.

There are only a few escrow services that deal with firearms. A website that talks about them (I think...I'm working from memory( is http://www.gun-trade.com/escrow/

Good Luck!!

Answer 2

Glock itself, as well as just about all other pistol manufacturers, have their own websites, as well as many wholesale distributors of firearms, but all the good any of these will do you is for browsing,if you are contemplating purchasing a new pistola, as ALL firearms purchases, WITHOUT EXCEPTION, must be handled through a certified FFL(Federal Firearms License) dealer.
You could also go to the site http://www.gunbroker.com to look for good deals in anything pertaining to firearms, ammo, and accessories. You CAN actually purchase a pistol on the Gunbroker site, but the weapon must be shipped to an FFL dealer, who handles the legal transfer to you. Many dealers(at least the GOOD ones) will handle this procedure for a moderate fee, usually $20 or so, with YOU paying the taxes, shipping and insurance charges.
I have the good luck to have such a dealer, who I have dealt with exclusively for many years, who will handle this, and custom orders, for 10% of the weapon's price, and HE pays the S&H.

Answer 3

Speaking from experience, you are better off going to your local dealer and buying off of them. If they don't have what you want see if they can special order it.

No matter what you do (unless you have a FFL) you are going to have to have the gun shipped to your local dealer who is going to charge you a transfer fee. It all adds op really quick and you will probably get off cheaper by just buying locally in the first place.

I paid 200.00 more for my M&P 15T than what I would have if I had bought it off of the dealer that transferred it to me. Did that make sense?
