My father passed and left me a collection of guns that I am now selling. I do not need them. I had someone write and ask how the heck a girl had some of these guns. Well thats how.

Yes, I know they are beautiful. And they sure would look good in your collection and not in my house.

Pretty good post count for day one

I didnt want anyone thinking I am a scammer or anything like that. I do have references from very reputable dealers and they will be the middle man on all transactions.

WEll I have had over 70 guns. Down to about 35 now.

Do you have the firearms appraised prior to selling?

I don't mean for insurance purposes either. Real, actual - SELL prices.

Yes, I had them looked over by David Condon out of Loudon VA who does appraisals for the Smithsonian and I also had Hansohn brothers look them over.

I know a guy very close to you in Fulks Run, VA that buys collections. PM me if you are interested.

RAS

Yeah I had a guy try to buy the whole collection for 7k. He must of thought I was totally ignorant. Thats the price of the winchester model 92 I have.

If he's interested in something, ill talk to him.

Larry Root is gonna get pissed that he can't take that user name now....

Sometimes a location in your profile helps, and posting pictures seems to really help sell things. There has been a lot of bad deals on here lately with new members not saying that all new members are that way. Maybe you can sell a couple face to face and get some good feedback on here to get you started.

LMFAO

She's referring to this thread: http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/7165270/1

I have sold quite a few on vaguntrader. I just started on here. We shall see. I sold one today on here. Hopefully I'll have feedback soon.

Are those the hockey players?




Reference to Slap Shot for those in Rio Linda.

Was that supposed to be funny? Dont be a jerk. I'm not raining on anyone elses parade.

Just trying to sell my fathers collection and move on.

Welcome to the Fire! Ladies are always welcome here and good luck with your sale.

Erich

Yes welcome and so sorry about your father. He must have been quite a hunter or collector to have the caliber of guns that you have for sale. Very nice and good luck, hope you sell them all.

Mark

For a while I thought it was Larry...I like her avatar though....

It's not necessary for you to find it funny.

When I was new, they convinced me I had to post a naked picture of myself with every gun I tried to sell. Didn't work for me, but I still think its a great idea

Just kidding - hope you enjoy the banter here - don't take anything too seriously and good luck with your sales - some beautiful stuff you have there!!

Joe

You should stick around, it's fun here.... ..Maybe we can turn you into a rifle loony like the rest of us...On a serious note though, sorry for your loss...

I think Id rather take all the jerks to the range and show them how to really shoot. They would leave with their tails tucked behind them pouting the whole way home.

Sucks to be beat by a chick.

I'll admit, I've been beat by a chick...

Strong language for a lady You never know, there might be one or two people here out of 40,000 or so that can shoot a little bit.

Just out of curiosity, what forms of comp do you shoot?

Yes it would but i wouldn't mind getting to know the company i was with!

Hard to go wrong with chicks and guns

Welcome and good luck with the sale.

Daddy didnt raise a princess! Looks can be deceiving! Anyways, I'm only here to sell guns. My Dad has very nice collection that he would rather be enjoyed by true collectors.

Hmm.... Most "chicks" don't talk about guns that way, or with that level of knowledge.

Sorry to hear about your dad passing.

From how you conduct yourself your not a kid, hope all works out well for you

I have been raised around guns my whole life. Shot my first shot at not even 2 years old. For the ones who have welcomed me to this site. Ty. For the ones who have been rude, your comments don't phase me. Im here for business and if along the way I meet some nice people. GREAT!

Then I guess , YW

You may know more about shotguns than a good number of shooter here, most east coast shooter were skeet years before sporting clays started up, here in the Midwest there are more trap shooters.

Welcome aboard. I'm just getting started myself, on here anyway.

If it moves or has a bullseye, we shoot it.

Was the guy you talked to in VA named Ronnie? If so, I know who it is. Though I doubt he would lowball you like that. I hope it isnt.

I lived in N. VA for about 4 years.

RAS

No, that wasn't his name

Ok, good. He lives in Fulks Run and buys collections. I think he would be fair. It will be a whole lot easier than nickle and diming each gun, especially when you include the hassle of shipping.

Take care,
RAS

I had a quick look at the list of guns this morning, and you have some wonderful, high quality stuff. I can see that your father had good taste. Too bad I'm not in the US right now.

Sorry to hear of your Dads passing.

Welcome to the fire, enjoy yourself.

ty

I appreciate the warm welcome from everyone!

Sorry for your loss, 'Chick. Are there some special pieces from his collection that you kept to shoot or for sentimental reasons?

Welcome, again. You might choose to stay around, also. Especially if any of the various forums appeal.

Yes there are some special ones we are keeping.

Sorry for your loss.

Welcome to the fire. Pull up a chair and set a spell.
Pretty cool place to hang out. Hope your sale goes well and glad to hear you hung to some special pieces.

Also, I could care less if I get outshot by a lady. If a person can shoot, they can shoot....

Welcome to the fire, most every one here are pretty decent folks, not to hard to spot the obnoxious ones.

Sorry for the loss.

Welcome to The Fire. We could have been neighbors as I spent much time in Reston, Va.
