Florida Gun Trader offline?

Post by Deputydave »

Tried to jump on the site, been a while. Seems to be offline or maybe gone?

Rumor has it that George Soros bought it for $2500 just to shut it down.

It would be the first time I ever supported anything George Soros ever did LOL.

Seriously, at this point (not in ye olde days of yore), is FGT a net plus or minus for us? It's a den of thieves, and overripe for a spectactular disaster. I would happily see it go away and just be content with our BST forum here.

With the demise of Armslist, FGT has been the only well traveled public firearm classified. Yes, you have to weed through the garbage, but there are honest folks on there. My issue with selling here is simply that the audience is limited.

It is limited here--because it is well-run. A free-for-all disaster waiting to happen requires minimal effort. I would not support any government effort to shut FGT down, but it would not bother me in the least if it fell from its own weight.

I was on it 5 days ago, was working fine, now it seems to be dead in the water.

Weighed down by scammers.

Of course, they still haven't done anything about Sammy from Ghana selling several firearms.
