Where can I (other than ArmsList or the classifieds here) sell ammo?

DISCLAIMER: To avoid getting hammered by a mod, I will say up front that I will not describe what I have, nor will I answer any PM's asking me of such. I do not want to run afoul of the posting guidelines there for I will not discuss any items I have.

That said, I have recently sold all of my guns, and have ammo hanging around I want to get rid of as soon as possible as well. I would like to be able to go somewhere like a gun store or gun show and sell what ammo I have left. I don't want to have to mess with ArmsList and private sales. Can anyone point me in a direction for this?

There are local Facebook groups where you can sell guns and ammo.

I would say depending on where you are list them here I know more people will be shooting as the weather continues to get better, and it would give you the ability to judge the buyers character on here rather than some stranger off FB. I know I would depending on what you have if you made an ad.

I tend to disagree on that, 1775. On Armslist and even on here, you often have no idea who you are dealing with. At least on Facebook, (in theory) you see the person's real name, where they live, who their friends are, etc. and you can get a bit more background.

JMHO, but if you're like me, and can't post pics, why wouldn't you sell it here ?????

I would say you can still get a good frame of the persons mind on here by their posts if you want to go through all that checking, If the person hasn't locked down their FB then yeah you can see who they hang with and if any of the pics show questionable behavior. On here though for those who have a feedback score you can judge whether or not they may flake out on you.

Out of your trunk, roadside, at midnight?

Not saying you should, only that you can!

Hey, ya didn't say it had to be a good idea!

Private sale would be the best. A gun store generally won't take old ammo. Liability. I would say the best is to post here and do a face to face sale. I would list everything and sell it as a lot. One shot and done.

You can sell on Gun broker. Or set up a table at a gun show.

 

[Bigdodge]

why not a pawn shop

 

[boogieman]

Profire advertises that they buy factory ammo

 

[churchmouse]

I have to say this......You did what????
You sold "ALL" of your guns.

 

[Tactically Fat]

I can't figure out why you don't want to list it here?

I can guarantee it'll sell if the price is right.

Not knowing about where you are in the state makes it tough. I'd just call some local gun stores, especially any that offer reloaded ammo, and ask.

 

[Ruger-9mm]

Mainly I just didn't want to mess around with dealing with a private sale, and get things taken care of in one fell swoop. That, and I wasn't sure if I had 50 posts on my account or not (I haven't used this account in ages). I'll probably list it here and see if I can turn it quick.

As for selling my guns, I had my reasons. Don't really want to go into them, but they are such that any reasonable gun owner would agree that it was prudent to do so.

You could possibly offer a small discount for people if they were to buy a good chunk of it, that way you dont have to deal with as many private sales. I am pretty sure you would get more from selling it here/armslist then you would by trying to sell it back to a gun store

No pics=no posting.

The good folks at ProFire took it of my hands yesterday, so I'm all good now. Thanks to who ever suggested them!

 

[corngrower]

I didn't suggest Profire but was beat to it. They are hands down the place to do what you wanted.
