I need to ask some questions of some of you Texas guys. I am a mid sixties guy that has been out of black powder shooting for some time and will be moving away from the ranch. I need to know if there is a gun shop that takes consignments or trade days somewhere in Central Texas. I am in the Lampasas area and do not want to sell my long guns on the internet as I have had two damaged in shipping that were very well packaged in the past. I think the length just caused problems. I also have some powder and don't know if it is even legal for me to sell it these days. Your help and advice is appreciated.
 
If you have quite a bit to sell maybe a table at a gun show or flea market.
Perhaps locate some local bp clubs and let them know what you have for sale.

You might list what you have for sale. There are Texas shooters here who might make a road trip to meet you depending on what you have and buy then face to face sale. I might be interested depending on what you have and the price.

To answer your question straight up, I do not know of a specific place. If it helps send me a Private Message on what you are wishing to sell. I always like a road trip.

The problem with him listing things he wants to sell in the regular areas of the forum is, it is against the forum's rules to do that.

Making an offer to sell or buy has to be done in the Classified Ad sections of the forum. That's why they are there.

To post advertisements to sell or buy things in the Classified Ad areas a member has to have posted at least 5 posts and they have to have been a member for more than 14 days. Wilded meets all of those requirements so, he can post anything he wants to sell now.

I don't know about him but I do know there are a lot of things people want to sell but they don't want to deal with the problems of shipping the stuff and a lot of people are a bit leery about accepting personal checks.

I do suggest that anyone who is curious about what wilded might want to sell, just start a "Conversation" with him by clicking on his picture in his post. That will open a window that gives the option of starting a "Conversation". (That's what the forums software calls a "private message".
In a "private message" you folks can talk about anything you want to talk about including buying and selling things.

If you do start a conversation with him, don't forget to give the PM a title and don't forget to push the "Start a Conversation" button at the bottom of the screen to send it. :)
 
At the monthly shoots for the Dallas Muzzleloaders, quite regularly guys bring stuff for sale and put it out on a picnic table there. I have seen all kinds of stuff there including Rondy clothes, knives, guns, etc....
They have a shoot near Tool Texas the second Sunday of each month.
 
I agree with Zonie, try selling here. There is a grest Sale/ Classified department on this forum. Plus youre fairly close to Cabela's in Buda aren't you? I think (but not real sure) they do consignments.
