Do we have any kind of an active gun-trading classifieds here in NH?

I've decided to sell one of my handguns to help pay for the never-ending divorce bills, but have no idea where to list it.    Selling a handgun in the EE is tough, because shipping a handgun is retarded expensive.    The Northeast Shooters board seems to be almost exclusively for MA, and it requires you to be a paying member to list anything in the classifieds.

What other options exist for local sales?

You can post on Uncle Henrys. There's also a number of Facebook sites for NH if you're on there but they're closed groups so you have to get approved first. I currently have my SAR-1 listed on all of the above. Lots of people looking to trade on FB though FYI

I don't spend a lot of time on facebook.  Is there a group you would reccomend?


And stupid question... if I post a for-sale ad to a facebook group, is that only viewable by the group?  Or does it show up on my timeline, and anyone who has me friended, etc etc?    I keep a very low profile on facebook, in part because of the aforementioned divorce crapola, and would prefer for now that my firearms hobby not be broadcast.

You don't visit GD much huh?  There's a weekly "Facebook buy/sell gun groups" bash thread.  They are very much deserved and NH is no different.  They are a flea market meets Walmart shitshow.  I would unjoin the one I belong to if I knew how.  Yes the FTF market is pretty dreary here.  Not much to look at in the NH only EE, moves way too slow.

HAHA, same experience here.  I joined one of those NH buy/ sell gun groups and it's people starting fights, trying to seel junk at prices more than brand new, etc.  It's a joke.  I've had several people send me threatening messages just for pointing out that the price they're asking is kinda high.  Bunch of dummies.  It's a comedy show for me now lol.

To the OP, what are you selling?  I'm always looking for older S&W revolvers.

I have bought and sold lots of guns on Armslist.  It is kind of like Craigslist though and you are guaranteed to get a bunch of idiots.

Agree you do get a lot of offers for trades on John boats and go carts, but I have gotten some good deals too ...

I've had OK arms list luck as a buyer.  I offer cash and do face to face, nothing else.

I deal on Armslist all the time. It's fine if you computer literate and can spot trolls, scammers, and lowballers. I just don't even respond to anything that doesn't sound like a competent human being, haha.

This just confused the heck out of me. So is it legal to sell FTF if the person has a nh license and nh LTC still?

LTC is irrelevant.  You have to "know" the person in order to sell him/her a handgun, nothing more.  Do you know me?  I know you...

NO, it states you either must know them, or they must have an LTC.  Shaking hands in the parking lot and saying hi and meeting in real life for the first time is not satisfactory of knowing someone.  

Face to face deals aren't worth it to me if I am the seller, I don't trust anyone.  Everything I trade/sell goes to  a local FFL, making a few more bucks via private sale isn't worth it for me.

I stand corrected.  Thanks.
