Full description and what we offer
My Gun Trader is a law enforcement and military veteran-owned firearms marketplace created to give gun owners a free and open platform to buy, sell, and trade firearms, ammunition, parts, accessories, archery gear, and hunting equipment across all 50 states.
The platform launched with a simple mission: provide a better alternative to crowded classifieds that are flooded with dealers and plagued by scammers.
Unlike competitors that either charge monthly membership fees or prioritize premium dealer accounts, My Gun Trader keeps things straightforward:
- •Account creation: Always free
- •Simple Ad: $1, runs 30 days
- •Featured Ad: $5, runs 90 days and appears at the top of all search results
- •Messaging: Secure platform for buyer-seller communication (contact info stays hidden until you choose to share it)
Email verification is required for all new accounts, and reCAPTCHA verification confirms you're human. This stops the constant barrage of spam that plagues other platforms.
The marketplace covers the full spectrum of firearms and related gear:
- •Guns: Handguns, rifles, shotguns (private sellers and dealers)
- •Ammunition & Reloading: Factory loads, components, equipment
- •Parts & Accessories: AR handguards, optics, scopes, tactical gear
- •Archery: Bows and archery equipment
- •Knives: Tactical and hunting knives
- •Hunting: Hunting-specific gear and equipment
- •Services: Gunsmithing, transfers, and related services
- •General: Items that don't fit other categories
Registered users police the site themselves. Any listing or user that appears to be a scam or violates Terms & Conditions can be flagged by peers for removal. My Gun Trader doesn't get involved in transactions—that's between buyer and seller—but the peer reporting system has proven effective at removing bad actors.
Private sellers can legally sell firearms to residents of their own state provided they have no reasonable cause to believe the buyer is prohibited from possessing firearms under federal law. My Gun Trader provides a free Firearm Bill of Sale template to document transactions. For out-of-state transfers, most local gun shops will conduct the background check for $25–$50.
The platform has grown to serve 50,000+ monthly visitors with 2,200+ registered users. Recent listings show active inventory including CZ pistols, AR-15s, tactical shotguns, precision rifles, and vintage Colts from $300 to $3,300.
My Gun Trader partners with established firearms dealers including Gordon's Gallery of Guns (Galloway, OH), Olympia Arms (Olympia, WA), Kenneth Smith Tactical, Target Time Defense, and Tela-Impex (wholesale ammunition, Hallandale Beach, FL).
