First post—Interested in selling—Questions about selling

[bwilson1185]

Hello all, new to this forum and I apologize in advance if this is now allowed. If it is, kindly let me know and I’ll remove and try to find this information somewhere else.

In a nutshell, I’m interested in selling my RPB M11-A1 .380 sub-machine gun. I live in the Shepherdsville, KY area and thus far I’ve got one option through a local FFL but he’s asking for a 15% fee just to introduce me to a buyer.

I’m curious if anyone can suggest ideas on how to sell this gun or a place that I can market it for sale without violating TOS that just about ever single website has in place.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Is this a Joke? You live in Shepherdsville, KY and don't know a place to sell your machinegun? Take it to Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot in a few weeks and walk around with it with a sign on your back and you may sell it. Only cost $15.00 a day to get in the gate.

Excellent idea. I recall seeing on the news that this year is the last year for this event and I thought it had already happened. Just looked it up though and I’ll plan on doing just that. Good call

Still interested in avenues online to sell this gun should I not be successful at the machine gun shoot.

Post it in the forum here. There is an NFA for sale section.

that's ridiculous.
there's multiple online sites (this one included) that have free classified sections. (maybe throw a few bucks to admin for hosting costs if it sells)

I am located in Louisville and am interested in purchasing. PM me what your asking price is.

One thing to keep in mind is that since the seller is an individual, there will be two $200 transfers involved if the buyer does not also live in Kentucky. Also, people are much more apprehensive about buying from a individual and waiting versus a gun shop and waiting. That will impact the price. 15% for an introduction to a buyer is too much as you can do that yourself. However, if a dealer were to immediately pay you 15% less than the prevalent dealer selling price, that would be reasonable.
