For some unknown reason, I follow >>Lock Stock & Barrel<< out of California fairly closely, but they have announced that they are leaving >>eBay<< with their appropriate items and migrating to >>Wyoming Outpost Auction.

Anyone know or have used >>Wyoming Outpost Auctionn<<??

I buy all the time from Gunbroker and had never heard from them. The website shows they were started by the owner of Bunbroker and they use the exact same temp,ate for their ads. They sell on the opposite week cycle than GB, it appears and do about 20-25% of the listings. Almost nothing they sell could be moving from eBay since the big E would never list any of them. I wonder if it is operated to take the material that GB for some reason can't get a transfer approval for the merchandise to come to California. I have seen letters I recieved as part of auction provenance which include the California approval for shipping into the state. It may be that if they don't recieve the approval, they send them to their dummy company in Wyoming and handle the sale from there. A large number of their listings look to be non-Kalifornia friendly.

I will say that I follow GB closely, and I several nice doubles that are going to sell tomorrow that have very low prices for 1 day before the hammer. I suspect that a lot of people shop and buy on gunbroker almost exclusiely for safety and service. Being shunted to another site looks like it may cut your profits.

I am watching four of those side by sides right now. Funny thing is two are cut barrels for sure. Odd mix. Was trying to figure out if it is just LS&B trying to open a location outside of California like Gunrunner has done to get away from California rules and restrictions.

Not clear yet f local affiliate means owned by or just copying what they do in another location.

I have bought several guns from LSB. Each have been very smooth buys. Well described, easy to complete the sale and well packed. They even have a wide selection of guns to look over.

Most of what they list couldn't be sold in California for sure. I can see it as a way to sell black guns more easily. Yes to whoever said there are some cut barrels on those sxs's. Actually 3 have cut barrels imo as I had some additional pics sent to me.

That is the one thing I picked up on right away. There doesn't seem to be as much disclosure as on the LSB site. I buy with a lot of confidence due to their detailed and upfront descriptions, even though they may sugar coat them. The Wyoming ads seem to be lacking in a lot of obvious facts past cut barrels. Not a bad place for an expert to get a bargain, but a newbie could get burned. Some of the descriptions seem to be put together by people not even familiar with the common terminology of a firearm.
