Buy recommendations Gunpost

Buying on gunpost, how do you guys get more peace of mind? Looking at buying a rifle and the guy is not close so I’m gonna have to get it shipped. His reviews are all good, has a bunch. Just wondering if anyone has anymore tips?

If they have a buncha good reviews then your good to go. You can ask for collateral info like maybe a photo of their ID or somthing but then the argument could be made that it looks sketchy on your end asking for somthing like that unless you specify that its your first time and you just want some kind of "collateral information " but i wouldn't do that personally. Ultimately if you dont feel comfortable then thats on you to not carry on purchasing privately online

I would assume PAL check would cover ID wouldn't it?

If he is buying he doesn't need to check sellers pal...

Right, but the seller has to check his. There will be a record of that. Who, what, when … but of course there’s no registry 🤣
