Man, the Fees

[Unqualified]

I was going to sell all my guns and buy one. It’s a bad time to sell on Armslist because they are converting everyone to Premium- for money to weed out scammers. Then I can get a certain amount of money together. But it costs over $150 for fees here. And reloading for old calibers is over $100. Then there is not much. It costs money and time to sell guns at a decent price. Would take too long to get together. It’s money, it’s all about the money. But if you are content you don’t have that problem.
What an addiction what a lust is this gun lovers thing. So now again I must self control myself and be content. Not a problem! I am going to be content again myself and not go there until next time. Jesus is the hope of the oppressed. The hope in heaven not this life. Maybe I’ll learn someday!

My local GS does the advertising on Gunbroker and other places, and the shipping I get a call, I show up and he gives me money.

What state big guy? I want to move there. How’s the rent there. Ha

 

[ss51]

Midwest, many of the states are pretty cool and still have some freedom, S. Dakota has an awesome Gov.

How’s the rent in SD or even Wyoming. We got it pretty nice here except for the gov. But we’re not in big cities here. You?

 

[ss51]

should be reasonable, get there before California, Chicago and N.Y.C. empty completely. Where are you now?

Kalifornica. Now changing to non ffl guns. No registered

Wow, you have my sympathy. Maybe the Lord will include CA. in the revival and cleansing He desires for His world.
Idaho and Wyoming may be the answer, just leave any California Wrong ideas at the border.

Thank you brother for your sympathy. Can you name some CA wrong thinking to leave at the border? Calif cuisine, politics, environmental. I think I know what you mean, but can you name some for me? I’d like to see what people think of some Californians. We are just folks, I think we could get along anywhere. I know you hear complaining about people here and there.

Whatever happened to California that made them skew left.

I lived in California 44 years; I left 16 years ago, and haven't looked back.

California was reasonably well-balanced politically until 1986, when a general amnesty was declared there, allowing most illegal aliens to become citizens with no red tape. Many did (I actually helped some do so), and they promptly began voting for Democrats. Ever since, the Democrats have held a majority in state politics, and will continue to do so until some other major development changes it.

So, if you move to another state, DON'T support open borders.
If you feel at home in a conservative state, your values are correct. Keep them.

Whatever happened to California that made them skew left.

Crime and bleeding hearts I guess. Unhappy people from all over the country came to find utopia, good weather, Hollywood. The took marketing serious and tried to differentiate. And boy are they different.

I LOVE ARIZONA.

 

[ss51]

Me too! Been there a couple times, remember watching a prospector and burro walking into Apache Junction towards the Assay office with his find in the late 60's.
The history of the old west is still alive and very near in time.

Shipping, sales tax, transfer fee, dros. It comes to at least $200 per gun. I’m into antiques but now a shortage to find what I like.
Sell two guns to buy one. I think I’m done.

Local gun forums work well too. I avoid armslist, too many scams. Gunbroker is a great site though.

Good time to sell there but bad time to buy.

I think all the good stuff and the stuff I want has been bought. What’s left is high priced left overs. From this last run of guns and reloading and accessories. Everything to come will be new. Where I’ll they get the antiques and the C&Rs. And will the high prices continue? I bet they do. It’s a plot by the gov of Kalifornica to rid the poor of guns.

I bought this real nice mini compact brass catcher from ELMFG on line for my ruger PCC 40. Why pay too much for what’s left on gunbroker?

I wanted to buy a old style cimmaron 44 special and it had the cylinder already on it. It was a Colt SAA repro. Good price. I saw it at a gun show. How they are going to work that I don’t know. I would have to pick it up in 10 days at a ffl gun shop. I have no idea what the final price would. But I’m not going to spend my tax check for it!
