Bonanzle and most other selling venues (ecrater, eBay, etc) do not allow it.
I just bought a gun online. The online seller has to be a licensed and certified dealer. The seller has to ship to a licensed certified dealer in your area for you to pick it up in person(includes the waiting period).

This is America! I certainly hope so! It would be a shame not to list firearms….guns don’t kill people—people kill people! Why if guns weren’t available to the public, some govt jerks would take over!
Well, that’s my biggest fear and I’m sticking to it!
Yeah, you can trust our govt—ask any Indian!
Ummm, gun police? I’ve seen BB guns for sale on this site…but firearm & ammo magazines are prohibited as well? OMG! The NEW World ORDER may be closer than we thunked!
C’mon 2012!

There are a few things that you should know before selling or buying the firarms online. it must be shipped to or received at FFL dealer confirnmed address only(unless you are an FFL holder your self) with adult signature requirements. You can’t ship cuns and ammo in the sam box. You must be approved by USPS to ship with them. UPS ground. Check www.gunbroker.com www.auctionarms.com www.gunsamerica.com

There is no reason to exclude firearms sales, other than possibly the agenda of the owners of this site. Backpage does it.
It’s called ‘net neutrality’. Let people sell and buy what they want. Don’t censor their activities just because you don’t agree with them. And let people deal with their local laws themselves.
I won’t buy here, or craigslist for that matter because they are the same way.

there is absolutely no reason for the owners of this site to allow it… weapons have to be shipped from FFL to FFL REGUARDLESS of what state the buyer and seller are from …… of course local state and federal laws apply but that is handled by the FFL holders and the purchaser and should at no time be influenced by a private company…. If you are going to run a site that allows the sales of other auctions or sales you might want to get an attorney and investigate exactly what your rights are in running such a site and showing a bias in reguards to the legal sale of fire arms. as you may be opening your self and company up for a nasty lawsuite reguarding discrimination of legal gun owners and there constitutional rights to keep and bare arms. this is a free trade society and it is only a matter of time before some one decides they have had enough!
