Are we talking antique handguns? I haven't bought a pinfire here, or a .32 for that matter. Most .32s aren't antique... Most.

then maybe you got them off my site or maybe GB from me,
And yes handguns. Pocket pinfire and a 32 rf

But what Ever Maybe i am on Crack and cannot Remeber right and i dont want to look it up.


But i am sure mike that i remeber you buying lots of me... (well we did a trade also... for that 12G mag)
i want to say more... But ill not... unless you make me mad!
 
Ah ha! A basket case .32rf (just a junker) had a home made pin that was just a joke and a nice little .30 pinfire? I got them on a face to face trade from a young guy... Traded him for a Spanish sxs I had listed on local buy and sell.
 
In Canada there are a few scum bags that over charge for these guns. You can still find them down south without any issues.
Call this a niche market of our present laws and supply & demand along with a steadily shrinking supply of these unusual pieces.
Antique markets are very healthy south of our border. But they just have over ten times our current population. Competition within thier own marketplace reflect thier slightly lower pricing, along with the tanked out US economy.
A perfect example was Pawn Stars about a month ago. An antique 1873 SAA Colt went for over $3000 dollars. Sound familiar?
 
Ps. You've been selling guns since you were 14? Wow!

not sure if you seen my other post. But YUP i did look back to my log book. and i know who u are. And i can prove it! Hell i think you even called my mom to ##### that you never got your antique letter.. and i had to refund you $100 for somthing.



But like i put B4, you Stop Being a little Kid and ill Not Post the info.

Hell There is even 2 ppl Asking me over email to tell them! and as of Right now i am Not going to tell them.
 
This is an interesting thread, anywho... I'll pay a premium for a antique handgun that functions 100%, south or north of the border.

I'm not interested in them for their historical originality ect. I have them because they work and they are outside of our absolutely atrocious firearms laws.

The ones that I do have that I like will be with me until death and I will do my best to make sure they are in close to the same shape as they are now.

I have paid more than I should have for some of them but considering they work like new guns I could not give a s**t less...

Money... it all gets spent, most people spend it on pointless useless ####, atleast I'm getting something cool, unique and useful.
 
Look, I really don't care how much you sell for... It's not my business. I'm just trying to point guys in the right direction. It's not hard to import. Very little risk.

Locke it, I suspect your motivations are altruistic and I truely laude you for that, but by golly your post come off as abrasive and insulting to folks who don't really deserve that sort of animosity. I think you made your point and imho this would be a good time to maybe tone it down a wee bit :)
