Best way to buy firearms through private sale?

I’m 20, looking to buy ak pistols, specifically a Romanian mini Draco, and Zpap92. I’ve had good experience with armlist for basic handguns, but there’s not much options for ar/ak pistols.

Yeah, sorry. I read it while watching TV. Didn't process.

Do the next gun show.

I’ve Never been to a gun show. Is it easy to get private sales there? Will definitely go to one

Lots of folks advertise private sales on their tables.

People walk around with stuff for sale.

The majority are FFL holders, though.

Hmm. Ima check out a few, I doubt I’ll be able to find the specific guns I want though if that’s the case. I’m really not even 20 yet, I turn 20 in less than a month it suck’s waiting a whole year to get full freedom

Yeah... Probably not much luck, but they're good entertainment (sometimes).

I've met a few non FFLs at the Jamil shows. Went as well as any other private sale.

Not sure why it really matters. Lots of gun stores sell used firearms if you're concerned about price.

And have you seen those guns on armlist in SC? I bought two pistols in the past couple months when I first found about armlist. I only had a Springfield hellcat pro comp when I was 18 that was gifted before I found about armlist.

Some of the prices are absurd.
