The RECEIVER is the restricted part of the firearm, and you can’t get those on ebay.

So you can assemble a firearm from eaby parts all day long, but when you are done you will have no where to put the bullet in it.

More ignorant bad reporting.

“Gunbroker.com offers a safe venue for weapons enthusiasts to auction whole firearms, parts, accessories, knives, and even hunting gear. They don’t charge insertion fees, and only take a selling fee that is, supposedly, less expensive than other auction sites.”

“However, who is stepping up to challenge the ethical and moral position of a site that disavows any responsibility of the weapons being constantly sold between users? Though users are forced to register, and must be licensed to own the weapons, what happens to the ownership of firearms when you can acquire one with the click of a button?”

“Though the internet is a useful tool, the dealing of firearms via the internet is a step in reducing the security now in place in standard firearms stores. The internet isn’t always a good thing.”

It is interesting to note that no license is required to purchase or possess most firearms in much of the U.S. Interstate firearms transactions must go through an FLL on both ends. IANAL, but I quit doing business with eBay when they decided that my 2nd Amendment rights were unimportant — I have bought and sold firearms (and/or parts and accessories) via eBay, back when it was a more responsible organization. These days I stick with more reputable places to do business on the Internet. PayPal alone ought to make and sane person stay far away from eBay!
