One Person Can Make A Difference

4205raymond4205raymond Member Posts: 3,316 ✭✭✭✭

Recently there was a topic about residents of Michigan as I recall being excluded from purchasing on the Auction Side. I found a firearm that perked up my interest but NY residents were excluded.

I contacted the seller thru "Ask the seller a question". I gave the seller the reasons for my objections to his policy and i suppose one could say I raked him over the coals.

I am not making a complaint here or singling out a seller nor am I trying to toot my own horn. The seller has graciously removed NY as a exclusion. I honestly believe that sometimes "One person can make a difference". ---------------------------------------Ray

    Awesome Ray!! The GB Auction gun I clicked on would not even let me in for a view or any info. Saw it pictured in the front page format and when I clicked on it, a page opened up with just the No Sales to Michigan. There was no way I could even contact the seller. I found it strange enough to post about it here.

    I have seen that many times, with no sale to NJ, even though the gun was legal here. Made a call and the guy wouldn't budge. Shame. It was a Marlin lever action. I was willing to pay his asking price.

    Oakie, seller told me that he moved from New Jersey to Florida and that his family is all in Law Enforcement. Says he is enjoying his new found Freedom in Florida.

    I worry about all those people leaving Anti-Gun states and moving to Florida. Hope it does not tip like Guam with all those Marines or get washed away by a bad hurricane.😀

    My neighbor next door to my Virginia home says if you live through one bad hurricane in Florida you don't ever want to live through another. --------------------------Ray
