Be advised, if you intend to open a new account on Gunbroker, they will now require a valid cc and will charge you $1.00 for every time they (GB) attempt to validate your cc with either your bank or the cc company. If it comes back as non-valid you will still get charged and they will resubmit. Even if your cc is refused for some innocuous reason, GB will keep your cc on file.
Also, there is now more reported fraud on GB from Nigerian type scams. Caveat Emptor is the rule of the day on the site now. GB is there for the seller as that is where they make their money. How come so many sellers have A+++++ ratings?
Do your shopping, get some prices and then call a contact number. There are many reputable folks on GB, but there is slime there as anywhere else on the internet. Or better yet go to a local dealer and have them order you one of whatever you want out of shotgun news.
Just a heads up. If you have an issue or a question hit me w/ a pm and I will look around for you.
