The selection of guns in this area is pretty uninspiring, so I started searching the net for interesting guns. I have seen Bud's, CDNN, Centerfire, Guns America, Gun Broker and Guns International. I have never bought online before. I found a reputable local FFL holder who does $15 per gun. I spoke with him on the phone this morning. He seems to be a good guy.
I need to blow a little bonus money. What online sources do you recommend? Any you have had bad experiences with?

Gallery of guns. I've used them frequently along with Buds.
Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!
They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

CDNN, Buds, and Gunbroker are all good to go.

Very few will like what I suggest. I have been buying firearms for many decades. I don't do auctions, hate em! Been Disappointed by many sources in above list to put in mildly, including the dip$hits that I have managed to find on 24 HR. Especially the religious dip$hits. My main source for buying firearms is the Scandal ridden ARMSLIST. I love a good scammer. ARMSLIST is not for the weak-kneeded wannabee, or those that can't figure out who is scammin'. You must be prepared to gamble and lose a bunch of dough and/ or go after the basturds. I love a good scam. I love a good deal on an undervalued firearm. Have FFL/ will travel. Best, Chuck

Whittaker Guns if you know what you want. A member on the 'Fire (shortactionsmoker) manages the store. They have about everything and can get you about anything and will likely beat anyone's prices. http://www.whittakerguns.com/https://www.facebook.com/whittakerguns

I looked at Whittaker's Ruger sale on their Facebook page. I hate that I missed it. I could have done some damage.

We'll have a new ecommerce website in short order. The initial launch will be limited, then I'm going to open it up.
And I'm actually quite attractive.....
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
