Where do you buy your firearms from?
Greetings all. There are a lot of posts seeking advice on what to buy. I am wondering where you guys buy them from? I have been to a lot of gun shows but don't like to buy firearms there. Prices aren't that good and I don't want all those people around me watching me filling out forms etc. Besides, I probably won't see the vendor again. Mail order? Not comfortable with it either. I am certainly not going to meet some FFL dealer at his private home to take delivery of a gun. Online? similar feelings. That leaves local shops, which I have done business with. Selling is another matter. I have never sold a gun so have little experience in that department.

Nice folks I meet in the Pafoa classifieds.
Only junk gun I've ever purchased was from a gun shop. Everything I get from these guys is pure gold.Selling off a a sizeable Spyderco collection here

Re: Where do you buy your firearms from?
I've bought multiple guns at shows, local shops, main stream commercial stores, and people here. At shows I always make sure I buy from a dealer I can go visit should anything arise. Always take their business card and or information before walking away.
Don't be so worried...it's not like you're buying something that could potentially kill someone/something.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH WAIT...

Re: Where do you buy your firearms from?
Sounds to me like you already have this one "figured out."
I have done all of the above, with the exception of gun show purchase. As long as everything is on the up-and-up w/ the 4473, the FFL, etc., why the concern?
It's not like you're driving down to 3rd and Indiana, asking around for some dude named Fish Scale, and telling him that Lil Queef sent you for a burner
I would second the recommendation of starting off doing a face-to-face through meeting a forum member at a local FFL-holder...
Regards,
Bones

For the most part I like to keep it local so purchase most of mine from Tanner's in Jamison. Great bunch of guys there and the prices are generally the best I've seen.

They sell Pistols?
I prefer in store face to face personally, not to crazy meeting up with someone FTF, but regardless it will have to go through a FFL Dealer to be completed anyways, so unless that person or one of their buddies are a FFL licensed Dealer you'll be in a Gun store of some type anyways. even when you purchase online it will be shipped to a FFL Dealer and not you directly. get to know your local shops and find out what their policies are for this, all the paper work will be done locally.
