Stop living about round count

I have sold many guns with less than 200 rounds through, no mods though, at least for pistols. I did modded a lever action gun, shot it a couple times and sold it here, it was a beautiful marlin (made by marlin) I kinda regret letting that one go.
The Itrader score is good to recognize those trying to rip someone off, post count is a good indicator too. I would not recommend buying without seeing at least a few pictures.
Mags, mag well, barrel, locking lug, all good indicators of wear. Check those out.

Cheers.
 
With your trader rating it, seems you're hardly a subject matter expert :) . Sometimes you have to trust a seller and inspect the firearm for wear...yes, you can tell the difference between 100 and 1K rounds.

You offer a gun for sale that has every imaginable upgrade done to it and includes 7 mags and you expect me to believe you only put 100 rounds through it. I might have been born at night..just not last night. If your going to sell a gun on here stop trying to rip someone off. It's so obvious when you do.

1 round or 2000 rounds. Used is used and price should reflect it. Hell I only buy new guns, and I'll never sell. It makes no sense to me to buy a new gun and never fire it before you sell it for a loss. But some people like there cucumbers pickled I guess.
 
How the heck does a newbie with few posts and FB 0 know so much. Being a post whore means nothing, but being on the site for a long time with lots of FB has clout.

So based on what EE experience is the OP referencing.

PS. Someone with 7 mags would be disconcerting; even in a drunken stupor wouldn't you stop at maybe 2 or 3. Not sure I'd trust someone like that.

Honestly, who keeps the exact round count anyways. eg. Exactly 235 rds fired. I don't believe it for a minute.

I have a computer program and app that I input the round per gun as I use them.
So every gun I've purchased in t he last 10 years is accurate round count.
And from what I see at the range I'm not t he only one who tracks round counts.

As to buying guns with little to no use, I have a coworker who at least once a year buys whatever is new and the must have gun, puts 20 rounds down it then flips the gun before the next years buy. Usually at half the price he paid for it. I don't ask why, I just buy them from him!
 
Quasi EE rant?


yep

Unless I have previous knowledge of the seller or gun; used is used. 100-1000 is the same to me. The price doesn't go up unless its hard to get and I'm beyond patience.
 
How about dual welding, is that counted as 1 or 2?

I'm going to the range tomorrow. I'll likely put 50 rounds through it, or should I say 100 rounds?

It will have only discharged 50 times anyway!
