    Anyone ever use cooperatehandguns.com

    They are either a very good scam, or a great find. I m hesitant to pull the trigger. What say Calguns?

      I’d guess most posts in that one apply to this too.

        Very good scam? It is the worst I have ever seen. I could make that website in less than one day. The domain was just registered last month, with a hidden identity. Everything in their "blog" was lifted word for word from this Tactical Life page



        Friend, you gotta get way better at spotting scams if you think this is 'very good'

          "Beretta 92FS 9mm STAINLESS STEAL"

          Sounds about right. ^^^^^

          BHP $600?

          "RESCENT POSTS"

          Two locations with city and street, but no address.

          I buy guns FTF so I don't have to post up a Calguns thread on how I got ripped off.

            They're a scam.

            In case you didn't know, FFL information is public knowledge. You can go to this website and pick any state in the union and find every FFL except for 03 C&R FFL's.

            So I did exactly that for the state of FL. I searched in Jacksonville, zip code 32216 and for White Sands. White Sands didn't come up at all. And the city and zip code their name does not come up. And, if you search their name it too comes up with nothing found.
            Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

                I know enough to ask for help, rather than jump the gun for FOMO. My motto is if it sounds too good to be true, still call on it. Thanks Calguns.

                  Believe it or not that is fairly common on big name, legit gun websites. *Never* trust the photo!

                    OK, who said they were legit in the poll?

                    Fess up and explain.

                      Post_1's OP,

                      It all seems too good to be true whether the inventory &/or the prices; others have apparently spotted material from another website (Tactical-Life.com); there's already this site, gunbroker.com, armslist.com (but do be careful); don't send money or even any personal info to some probable-bogus website.

                      Just move-on and don't even be tempted to enter that website again. Use your local gun store (LGS) and give your hard-earned money to them, instead. Unfortunately in these times, some LGS's services are limited right now (PPTs, FSC tests, incoming firearm shipments from unknown sellers, are some examples).
