NEW LEGIT CHECK - 11/22/19 05:03 PM

Hello everyone, I have tried buying a few rifles in the last few days but as a new user with 0 posts, many do not feel comfortable with selling to me. So I hope I can use this as a legit check on myself if we have done business in the past!


Thank you!!!

Just give them your user name from other forums that you are active on and have cred on - gun broker accounts also help....

Its the Internet, we all have traces spread over time of our past buys/sells

I sold a 243 to the OP a while back. Had a great exchange. He was a novic hunter that was looking to get into the sport. Sell with confidence.

Sadly I am a lone person, so I have myself for now teaching and learning hunting/guns. Hope to make friends down the road!

I'll be candid with you. Your post screams "red flag" to me. I too would not sell a firearm to you even if you were to pass a NICS background check and had a valid CHL permit. Bad vibe = no firearm sale; this is true if I know you personally or not.

There are lots of options for buying firearms and other products. If an individual or business doesn't want to sell something to you (that you are legally allowed to purchase), get over it and move on. If they don't want your money, then find someone that does.

I've made some smoking deals on here that retail could never touch. It just takes some effort and when a deal presents itself be ready to say "I'll take it".

Not sure this is even serious but, if you do your part, have the money and are willing to either travel or whatever, and they act like they don’t want to sell to you, I would be suspect of them, not you. This is just a forum, nothing more. Don’t be fooled by the self appointed greatness and superiority you might see. Some might think high post count means something, it doesn’t. Again, if you are serious about purchasing something, have money, willing to close the deal, they will sell. Now if you are someone that wants to have 500 emails or texts to decide, well that is another fact.

Absolutely 100% true. Well maybe not 100% of time, blind hog finds an acorn every now and again.

No clue where this left field post came from. This man is a new poster. Nothing red flags to me.
@Sniper.270, thank you for calling it out like it is.
yeezxces, where are you in Texas? And, welcome to the Forum. I hope this thread doesn't run you off.

I will throw in a comment about buying guns from THF members: I have been very happy with the value of my transactions, and I do know how to shop. Plus, it gave me opportunities to meet some fine gentlemen.
