It's just a directory to a variety of different dealers, and there are many.

The ones I've had specific good luck with are grabagun, kygunco, and palmetto state.

 

Bud’s was good - bit sure if that’s still true

 

That's not a site per se, it's a Search Engine thanks looks around for a site that might have the product you are looking for.
Post the name of the actual seller to get comments/opinions.

 

Not a lot of info on that page. And no "are you at least 18" question either.

 

Gunbroker.

 

I like Gun Zone Deals but I love Grab-A-Gun!!!

GunBroker will do for obscure stuff.

 

I’ve had great luck with CDNN and Grab-A-Gun. There’s a PSA 25/30 miles from the house, no need to order online from them.

 

CDNN and Buds are my go to online dealers.

 

I don't buy a lot of firearms online but I've bought from Palmetto State Armory, Grab-A-Gun, and Smoky Mountain Guns & Ammo with no problems, shipped to a local FFL of course. I always pay with a credit card for an extra level of security.

 

So, which particular seller did gun.deals direct you to, OP?

I've noticed that for many guns, the same bulk sellers tend to have the best prices. Odds are good someone here will have used the seller you're asking about.

 

I like Grab-A-Gun. Close enough I can order and pay on line, then pick up at their location with no transfer fee. I’ve also ordered non FFL items, next day delivery with freight less expensive than gasoline to drive to their location.

 

Take a look at family firearms:

I have gotten a couple of guns from Family - a selling point for them was no sales tax. Good, responsive group of people there.

 

I like Buds .

I was going to buy a blackpowder revolver from Grab a Gun , but their policy is to ship all blackpowder guns to a FFL , so no go with them .

 

I agree that buds used to be good but they totally rip you off on shipping charges even though they claim shipping is free.

I use grab a gun for the majority of my online purchases now, they Rock!

 

I do a lot of business with KYgunco, Palmetto State, and Grab A Gun.

 

Guns.com to add but a little on high side on some things.

 

Guns.com is a funny place. It's a conglomeration of many that sell through them. Most everything is high, but sometimes you can catch guns being sold at bluebook.
For those that don't know, the bluebook is the gun seller's bible on screwing people looking to sell guns. It has not kept up on the actual worth of guns so all the prices listed are low. They will use those low prices to tell you your guns are not worth much.

Where have you been?

 

The only online dealer I've ever used is Buds. Fast service, reasonable prices, they have what I'm looking for, I'm too lazy to look around trying to find a "better price." For mundane stuff, they're my go to.

Mostly though, I just go to my local dealer.

 

Shipping and FFL charges are high enough to negate most price discounts.

 

Let me change directions here: I suggest looking for a local small FFL operating from their home or having a small, home business; you can google FFLs in your area on a couple of sites. Let them do the work of getting the firearm. And they set prices that can be less than what you see online. I, as well as all FFLs, follow the MAP which is the lowest the manufacturer allows the price to be. But it is my experience I can beat a brick and mortar store and many online sites. (I don't have the markup that they do)
Some take CC and some check or cash. The guarantee on the firearm is almost always back to the manufacturer no matter where you get it. This is a general comment based on my experience - yours may be different.

 

Battlehawk Armory or Locked & Loaded are GTG as well

 

I'd say the experience really depends on which specific retailer it directs you to. I’ve personally had good luck with sites like GrabAGun and Palmetto State Armory—they’ve been solid for online orders.
If you’re shopping online, don’t forget you’ll need a local FFL to handle the transfer. If you’re in Minnesota and planning to carry, make sure you’ve got your bases covered with the **** Rapids MN conceal carry classes —it’s always good to be squared away legally.

 

I always worry about getting something beat to piss when buying used
