    Selling a pistol, not so easy...Thoughts

    PITA for sure. We have both FFL's ready. Its the money transfer that the seller is hung up on. I think its silly, but they dont. I think we have an option next week.

    Cheap but cant go without. When we lived in the city it was rare to sheer them. Now we live in the mtns on a steep slope and the deer and erosion knock granite rocks down all the time. I keep a bag of them with the two wrenches together so I dont freeze my fingers too bad swapping them out.

    Reverse searing equipment

    Gasser, Butane torch, or very hot cast iron for the sear.

    Selling a pistol, not so easy...Thoughts

    Your other comments are spot on, but this is 100%! I called around and all I got was very lowball offers. The pistol is no longer in production, so those who are into this model will pay. I didnt get any local interest.

    Selling a pistol, not so easy...Thoughts

    Contrary to the easy way. the buyer wont send funds via Venmo, Zelle, or Paypal. Technically you are not supposed to use these to buy firearms, but the only way they would know is if you were an idiot and wrote in the notes that is was for a firearm/ammo etc. Which would be kinda dumb. I had...

    Had a snow storm come through today

    It finally snowed enough to mention! Woke up to 6" and supposed to snow all day till early evening. I am confident this is the latest I ever fired up the snowblower. As luck would have it, I was 1/4 of the way through the driveway and sheered a sheer bolt. Good thing I have a big ole bag of...

    Health Insurance Nightmares

    I believe it! Workplace ins is a great deal. I dont think I ever really new how good it was till I had to buy it on the marketplace. We did Cobra for a minute, that is WAY expensive. That was one decision I regret, but it was only 3-4 months till we sorted everything out.

    Selling a pistol, not so easy...Thoughts

    They want 80-90 for the transfer plus 40-50 to ship. They dont want to process the payment for me. its frustrating AF! If I can get payment, I would pay the fees. But payment is the hang up now.

    More background. Local shops offered me "blue book" which was half what I paid, at $250-$300. Its discontinued and has a "following" and the sale I am trying to make is for $700+shipping and tax.

    Selling a pistol, not so easy...Thoughts

    I have a semi auto pistol I am trying to sell. I put it on Gun Broker thinking that would be easy. Well its not easy to get paid. As a nonbusiness without an FFL payment seems nearly impossible. I have a buyer, but no means to get paid. I feel stuck. Am I? If this deal dies, I guess I...

    Health Insurance Nightmares

    I hear ya. This a big part of decision process in retiring early. My wife was only on ACA for 2 year. I am 10 years younger so I am still not that close to Medicare. Till 2026 my monthly premiums were palatable. Next year will have a higher monthly, but it will likely pay off with the cost...
