Haven't sold a gun in decades, but I have a deer rifle I won't be using anymore. Back in the day, I'd have run an ad in the penny classifieds.

Are there any local pages or chat boards that allow such a listing?

Depends on what type of deer rifle you'd be selling....why don't you let us know what it is and we'll let you know the best route to take in selling it.

(I've purchased and sold through GunBroker.com and know others here have as well with success.)

Weatherby Vanguard V2 in .308 with a 3-9x42 Zeiss scope. Pristine condition.

Someone gives you money and you give them the gun. You can write up a bill of sale if you want, its just peace of mind though.

Is it? I paid around $1000 when it was new. I've taken excellent care of it, but it is a used firearm.

Person to person. Give gun to someone, they give you money or vice /versa and you part ways. End of story. It's that simple and it works in damn near every state.

For anyone wondering, for a hunting rifle, that thing will shoot the tits off a fly.

Absolute worst case, it's a sub moa rifle.

Why yes, yes it will. When I zeroed it (100 yds), you could cover the final group with a nickel.
