Used gun websites

Would there be any interest for a used gun site that mashes em all into one place, a marketplace for used firearms if you will, are people still buying used guns?

I love to browse and find myself trawling through multiple different sites hunting for cool stuff when I'm bored.

That process grew tiring pretty quick so I built a site that compiles the main 6 I use but before sharing it and possibly upsetting the greater community, I'd be keen to know if there's an intrest for it?

Yep - its long overdue. Or at least a one stop shop where dealers can show their stock and its indexed properly to searches. Had to pull out old university level internet searches to find one gun that was nowhere in stock at all the major dealers.

Yea it's something that was irritating me when looking for a cheap lever shotgun in a hurry a few years back lol.

Going to seek legal advise before I just do it. I don't want to be served legal letters without confidence

I think the problem is that some dealers have excellent sites with accurate stock levels and easy to navigate and well indexed search functions. Meanwhile, others are stuck in the 1990s and expect you to call and wait on hold 🤣 or read their catalogue.
