Whats with San Diego and all the Guns !
Have you noticed, it seems like 95% of all Firearms Private Sales seem to be from San Diego !!! Why is that ????
|
same here. I been shopping around for my first handgun. Browsing the for sale for probably 2 hours a day. seems like 80% are in the SD/LA area. Pretty frustrating that I keep coming upon great deals only to find out its on the other end of CA
|
I bought my P-01 from someone in San Diego, two round trips wasn't all that fun. Everything seems to be NorCal or extreme SoCal, not much in between. :-\
|
There is a HUGE military and LEO population here and we love our guns and when we get tired of the old we wanna get rid of them so we can go get the new. They should rename this site SoCalguns because most of the people on here selling stuff are between Orange County and San Diego. Dont think too many people would feel comfortable doing PPT with anyone in LA or putting up with that traffic. Every bluemoon or so Ill see someone in northern Cali selling stuff but most times they dont wanna ship soo they dont really count
|
I never sell a gun, it's a one way trap door at my house.
|
It's all those American purchased guns coming back from Mexico...
|
You SoCal guys are always teasing us with your guns for sale
|
FS: Glock under MSRP
nevermind, wrong section. |
Yap I notice that a lot is coming from SD.. Hmmm :gene:
|
I'm in s.d. and it seems like all the deals are in sac. Grass is always greener.
I've met calgunners from l.a. or s.g.v. up at the shootist or riflegear. Don't mind takin a drive if it's to pick up a 686 or a 4566. |
Actually, I wish there was more of us down here in SoCal. Especially around election time...:D
|
what I'm noticing
An equal amount of sales, yet, one side tends to have more of one type that the other.
For example. I've been looking for a nice lever action handgun round rifle, either in 357 magnum or 44 magnum, as well as a wheel gun 4" or less in the same caliber. I've notice most of the wheel guns for sale are in Northern California. That's when I started paying more attention. More hunting rounds show up in Northern Cal, mixed in with a few others commonly found on Calguns. SoCal has more military and law enforcement rifles and handguns. This is just a broad observation. I just noticed that when I was looking for something particular, I would notice the tendencies of where they would show up. That, or no one is letting go of what I'm looking for as much down in SoCal as they are in NoCal. |
Ha ha, I was just thinking the opposite. I am in San Diego and can't find anything.
All the firearms I would buy from sellers are in SF and Sac and Fresno area. |
More people live in San Diego and LA Including surrounding cities than the rest of California?
|
We in the IE. Well we just don't sell them !!
|
I'm pretty sure it correlates strongly with the blue vs red portions of the state. San Diego county is still clinging our guns and religion.

Surprisingly, its pretty conservative down here. Love it.

People keep telling me how conservative SoCal is. I'm calling b.s. on that. The reason people sell their guns down in that area is there are **** for ranges to shoot at (I'm talking real ranges that go out to 1,000 yards, and ranges that you can actually draw and manuever while firing), and no regular schmoe can get a CCW permit. Just my .02 after being down in SD county for a year and a half. |

a few rifles i will not sell but most i just play with and then sell. i never get attached to mechanical things. no such thing as a safe queen in my house. shoot it or sell it. |
my first guess would be MILITARY!
|
Because we're packin'
|
bigger houses = more space for safes = more guns :)

If you wanted to "maneuver while firing" go find some BLM land. |

Camp Pendleton? Miramar? A lot of military coming and going.

I agree with you about the CCW. Voting out Ruby Ridge Gore would be like voting out DiFi. |

When San Diego and Imperial counties succeed from Ca. and hook onto Arizona we will have a real paradise down here.
We would also get "Sheriff Joe" too. :) If Imperial County won't pitch in we will be 'Western Arizona'. Now how do we make this happen ? |
