[QUOTE="MadDogs, post: 2877856, member: 11175"] One would think that with current supply of firearms being better than over the last five years that it would be more of a “buyer’s market”. As S4F said firearm sales are slow and there are several factors driving that ... there is competition from other sites, the economy being what it (still) is (thanks Obama) and people needing the most for their firearms. Also could be that people who view the OSA classifieds simply do not have the need much less want for what is being sold. Years ago when I joined OSA I did so only to sell guns that I was not shooting (so I could buy more guns that I will not shoot). Over the last few years I have sold a Browning B80 shotgun, a S&W 2206, S&W41, an insanely accurate S&W 629DX (kind of wish I had that one back), a Ruger English stock 12 ga R/L (kind of wish I had that one back too) a beautiful Win 9422 (and this one) and a couple of really nice Sakos off the OSA board. Just sold a Rem 700VS 22-250 and I didn’t notice that selling it took any longer of time being posted than any of the others. [/QUOTE]
