I plan on selling a few things that go bang-bang but not sure if the time is right.
Too hot out and people act like slugs, (me).
Too cold out and people want to stay home.
Fall/winter? Seahawks are on the tube.
Consignment? Throwing money away but worth the hassle.
594 has fucked things up beyond belief. ANY day of the year.

594 sure slowed me down. Kinda lost interest, I don't need money and it's just a major hassle.
Since it passed I've done 4 transfers.
Before that, I had done more than that in a day.

It is a buyer's market right now. ARs are the cheapest they have ever been and there is no immediate threat of a ban happening. Plastic pistols are dirt cheap and mags and parts are everywhere. Ammo is at a low unseen in the past 10 years.
Basically unless you have something super unique you are going to have to price it low if you want it to move.

You have given me hope, grasshopper.

Even then meh. I have seen numerous good deals just sit. I didn’t have cash at the time sadly but tons of B&T, HK, FN and other unique stuff I have seen sit at prices I had close my phone and cruse budgeting.

Remember Bro..I get first right of refusal

If'n youre thinking what I thinking youre thinking.

You weasel. That one is hard to get rid of.

While the market might not be the best for value/high prices, one thing is certain. Folks have MONEY right now.

If you don't want to sell cheap, then post it for what you want. Whats the harm if it sits?

Where is this money thing you speak of, and where does one get it? I was under the impression that going to work every day would get it for me, but there seems to be some sort of confusion about who the end receiver is. Apparently I have an Uncle Sam, and he seems to collect more of it than I do.

You literally have to give gun-related shit away these days.

It’s not by seasons; it’s by political events.

And what’s wrong with shit sitting? Buyers browse the same avenues frequently and take notice - if you like getting lowballed, be my guest.

Same with bumping an ad, if I see XXXXXXX with (10) bumps to his ad, that fuck is not going to get full asking or close to it.

Sell hunting guns from about now through the end of October e.g. I'll be selling my Marlin 1895SBL soon. I love it but I have too many "thumpers" and really want a SPETS-12.

Sell most other guns from February-May (tax returns).

Sell collectible or high end guns anytime, but to a broad market e.g. there is a guy locally (Spokane market) trying to move Colt Pythons...there's just no one with $3k lying around for a safe queen around here.

Don't sell ARs right now, especially builds and especially especially 16" M4geries in 5.56/.223. Buy them as an investment for future "issues".

This seems pretty close to what I've seen.
Summer is the slowest time in the retail gun industry. From ammo sales at the gun show, to guns in a store.
It seems not a lot of people think about hunting guns until it's closer to hunting season. Hunting rifles will sit on the shelf unless deeply discounted until around mid to late August or September. Occasionally the week before hunting season starts.

It's been a horrible time to sell ARs for about 2 years. Great time to buy cheap and stack deep though. Complete firearms, parts, whatever. But even Colts are selling for just 900 new. I've seen a Noveske with Geiselle and a Primary Arms scope with a good mount go for $850.
