I had my first...and last... encounter with Gun World today. I noticed that most of these reviews are from people who have purchased firearms, so let me tell you about my experience when you want to sell. The owner must have positively thought he saw the word "sucker" printed on my forehead when I walked into his store...simply because I'm a woman maybe? I had an Ithaca 12 ga., a Winchester 30-30 lever action, and a Colt 38 revolver (officers model, 1st issue) I'll ballpark their high end value at $1600.00. I researched these firearms... I know the value...low and high end. I figured he'd probably hit somewhere in the middle. He offered me $400.00...for all 3. Now...I'm not a math genius, but wow...what a profit margin. I had a S&W 357 with a 4" barrel on my list. He offered me $300.00. He has one listed on his website under used firearms for $600.00. What a crook...if you want to sell, go elsewhere. I certainly will. I've also decided that Gun World writes their own reviews, Ha.
