I bought one new rifle there and didn't have a problem. They have a fraud protection program and I would read on that. http://www.gunbroker.com/User/FraudClaimProcess.aspx

As long as it is a reputable seller I wouldn't worry.  Get their number and give them a call.

I have bought a few rifles of the new and used variety and never had a proplem at all. These guys have to keep a good rep to keep sellin so they tend not to screw people over.

I just bought one in Oct. ......................No problem. Look at the selling parties rating. It will show you how many guns they have sold and grades they recieved from the buyers.

I've bought off of GB, and have a buddy buying and selling.  I'd trust it before Ebay, but that doesn't mean much.

I've bought 2, with one minor hang-up.  I'd do it again for sure.

I've purchased a few off it.  No problems.  Just find someone close that has a FFL, so you can transfer it.

Use the FFL locater on gunbroker.  The ones in your area will probably have prices from $25 to $50.  You get the exact same service for $25 that you would for $50, which is someone to accept the firearm on your behalf, and run a background check. No need to pay more than you have to.

I bought two on Gunbroker last year.   No problems......but like anything check their feedback.  Many sellers are gun shops and that generally will not be a problem.

i buy allot on there as well never had any problems just buy from a goode seller with good ratings as well and you should be fine make sure you have talked to a local ffl holder before buying mine charges 25.00 but WILL NOT DO IT FOR NEW GUNS! he only lets me use him if the gun is used. he wants me to buy a new gun threw him. If i am buying a new gun off there i use another that is a bit more of a drive. some charge 25 some charge 50 some charge a % of the total of the purchase price just know the facts before you buy one and you should be just fine :twocents:
