The rifles you buy when you're young and stupid

[Rocky Raab]

I'd agree , but caution you to never sell a gun through the newspaper. At a minimum, never have people come to your house to see the gun.

You may as well ask the police to start filling out the burglary report if you do.

You can meet somebody somewhere else, but even then you risk a knot on the head and the loss of both your gun and your truck. Or worse.

Kinda makes the few dollars you lose in a trade-in seem cheap, huh? Or carry it around the next gun show with a For Sale sign in the barrel. Or list it on an online auction/sale site (May I suggest our own Swap&Shop?) and ship it through a dealer.

All are safer to you than exposing yourself needlessly to crooks.
