It is legal to have guns in many countries around the world, but in China, apart from some privileged institutions, owning a gun is a capital offence! Gun trading is also a capital crime. I envy those who have guns, and they can better protect their property!

Buying legal guns with bitcoin (thanks cakir): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ0XcvHgpTc


I thinks buying legal guns you need a permit or firearms license's before you can hand a gun.by the way what is your purpose of buying a guns? which country did you belong? Mostly all of us need a gun for different purposes either for your own protection or maybe you have some securities business,but buying guns using bitcoin its will depend on which country did you belong,because here in our country,bussiness establishment,mall,groceries,or billing companies would not accept bitcoins as  an alternate payments of traditional currency  maybe soon if all people here will be educated about bitcoin.

It’s interesting to find that there is such a process for selling and shipping guns online using bitcoin. It certainly makes purchasing much more convenient.

Oh my i didn't know that there are sites that sell firearms i thought this is only accessible in the deepweb and darkwebs ive never expected that this is also accessible and available in the surface web. The only question is if this sites are legit have they even have customers that have succesfully received their products. Have you personally bought in this site ? do they do global shipping ? im just curious cause it might be just a scam to steal money after all governments would surely shutdown this sites if they found out.

I assume those are licensed shop because as far as i know, btc is not yet regulated and it will be hard for shipping if a certain country does not allow btc transaction. Because i would also want to buy everything via btc but the problem is shipping. It's gonna take days to arrive and sometimes if it arrives it was not the one i initially bought. I don't think those are scams but rather services that needs a lot of legal papers before they can proceed.

This thread is quite interesting for those who love firearms and other stuff. But if this is illegal or legal and you pay enough bitcoin, I think they will deliver it as soon as possible. I gonna continue to read this thread.

Why is your site redirecting to fbi.gov?

It depends on what you're trying to view on the site.
If you try to login to the admin area, it redirects to the FBI page.
This was mostly for hack attempts.

I had 3 merchant accounts for accepting credit cards canceled.
So I said screw them, and now I only accept Bitcoin, LiteCoin, and Ethereum.
https://boldarms.com

I sell 80% Lower Receivers, rifle kits, and other AR/AR10 parts and accessories
so you can build your own non-registered AR-15.
All completely legal in the US.

(the site is a work in progress)

Update:
I now have Monero, Bitcoin Cash, and Dash.

So far I have about 48 different rifle kits including DPMS,
and about 500 total products listed.

obviously this is a very interesting list i didn't know that aside from the darkweb you can also buy firearms using bitcoin but i just wondered although it seems legal i am thinking if they are legit or will they truly deliver the stuff you purchased? if so, how long it will take before you received the stuff? i think it is for me to find out but i am not going to buy a firearms anyway Grin

I use trusted "brick and mortar" dealers or well established online retailers to buy firearms and have never had a problem. It does take a while to go through the legal requirements for a gun sale, but that would be the same no matter how you pay.

There is a misconception among people who advocate for gun restrictions that "legal loopholes" are how criminals get guns. In fact gun sales are spied on more than any other type of transactions. Check out the link below and the story of the Chicago reporter who wanted to show how easily one can buy an AR-15. Funny stuff.

I do not know a place were this is possible, I can only name one thing and that is the deepweb most likely it got sold over there but a lot of feds are on there too so its very risky.

That is one of the best options you can pick right now, it will be without direct contact and safe from behind your monitor.
Oh make no mistake, you are being watched on the darknet by the police and by serious gun owners where shooting takes place. Show up at most ranges with a gun like that and you will get a free ride in a squad car. I don't know how it is in other places, but here in the U.S. the worst enemy of a criminal with a gun are America's legal gun owners. We're sick of having our gun rights infringed upon because of the irresponsible actions of criminals. 
WTF are you even going to do with an illegal gun? At best you will go to jail. At worst you will try robbing someone like me with 40 years of shooting experience who shoots 200 rounds a week and is always armed and ready. I've watched people bleed out in combat, it ain't pretty and you don't want to put your family through that just because you were too lazy to get a job.

I got my new AK-47 I can recommanded guys from gunsforbitcoin.cc they have very good guns from Columbia and from Ukraine black market . Good support and fair prices AAAA++++++++++

Just remember that buying from a place like this is a very serious crime. In America anyway, you would spend years in jail for something you could have legally bought at half the price. This sort of website is square in the sights of America's gun culture and the gun owners I know would love to put it's customers in jail. It hurts our rights as legitimate, responsible shooters.

Yeah gunsforbitcoin.cc does indeed have a good level of confidence. But unfortunately I can not do it, because in my country has some policies where everyone who has a weapon or using a weapon should have the correct certificate and not use it. So this is all just going to interfere with my life and better indeed just looking for another online store that is not contrary to my country. success always for all of you and best wishes for the future of the bitcoin is very good

Thanks for the great thread!  Never thought about BTC being used on firearms, with shipping to my local FFL this could be a fun thing to do one day.

I enjoy target shooting as a nice hobby.  Something I still cannot explain no local big box stores have 22's in stock. Walmart actually has a small line of people when they know they are coming in.  Is everyone's ammo situation like this?  I've had to order online and actually got better prices online but it's hit/miss on getting those.  

The project I have put aside I still need to do is shoot one of the green tips.   Need to find a hunk of metal I don't need.  But thats on my list sometime to do for fun.

Hey your welcome.  Cheesy
I know what you mean about .22s. They used to be they cheap option for shooting. The NRA studied the reason why .22s have become rare and found it was a bunch of factors, however the main reason was because they are less cost effective to produce than center-fire ammo.
If you want to shoot green tip (M885) then you are in luck, they are cheaper than ever and it is fun to see what they can do. Frankly I find them less fun to shoot because they go through anything but leave the same hole as any ammo. For fun try shooting a 1/4 inch steel pipe. You should be able to catch the hardened steel core.

If it is legal to have in your country, chances are they will ship it. The USA exports a lot of weapons, so the export regulations are usually not super restrictive, especially when it comes to unregulated parts.

I'm asking because I know a few people that had problems buying gun sights, optics, gun mounted flashlights, etc. Some places ship without problems, with others purchase is only possible if it's sent to a reshipper first, and others want you to make a call and then refuse to ship after hearing a foreign accent. It seems there is a very large discrepancy between different countries on what constitutes a regulated gun part/accessory and what doesn't. Then there's also some kind of $100/shipment limit.

http://www.borderview.com/services/for-individuals/100-export-exemption-details/

Optics can be tricky. There are classes of optics that can not be exported but can be purchased. For example, I think my night vision, red dot, and tritium sights all had stickers on the boxes warning not to take them out of the country.

You are right about pretty much all of this, except a receiver legally becomes a gun the moment it is able to be assembled into one, not once it fires a bullet or is assembled. Thats why they sell so called 80% receivers which are mostly complete but need to be milled further to be technically a receiver.

Heh.  I hadn't encountered "80% receivers" yet.  People playing jump-rope with the legal line, bless 'em.  When I encountered people into this build-your-own thing, it was still a matter of starting with engineering drawings and bulk sheet metal.

Hm.  I wonder if the business about needing to actually fire a bullet was ever true.  I learned it from what may in retrospect be an unreliable source. 

At the very least, most so-called gun control laws are about selling and dealing and buying firearms - fabricating them for your own use is relatively unregulated. 

In the state where I grew up we had a gun control law I could seriously support - you had to show a certificate that you had completed a gun safety course before you could buy.  And I was on the high school varsity marksmanship team.

The US (and because of it a large chunk of the world) has a peculiar idea that the "receiver" is the crucial bit of a gun.  That is, the central block that everything else attaches to or screws onto.  So the receiver is the part that's regulated, controlled, etc.

The reason this is a peculiar idea is that the "receiver" is usually just a few bits of sheet metal cut, drilled, and bent to shape and then bolted - which  somebody could make in an afternoon in  a home shop. 

So for example someone could get mail-order parts for a barrel, a trigger, a magazine, sights, etc without incurring legal difficulties...  but would have to do legal and registration paperwork if they were to try to get a receiver.  Until they either buy a receiver, or else fabricate one AND assemble and fire the resulting gun, what they have is not legally a "firearm." 

Laws vary from place to place, so don't bet your freedom on this, but as I understand it, as long as you have not obtained a receiver, it is not legally a firearm. Any thing you have created in the shape and form of a receiver does not legally become a receiver, until you actually fire a bullet.  And at that point, if you created the receiver in your home shop rather than getting it from someone else, you are the manufacturer of the resulting firearm rather than anyone who manufactured or sold you any of the more difficult-to-fabricate parts. 

But there are lots of finicky bits to this law, so don't try funny stuff like buying a firearm outside the US and then importing everything EXCEPT the receiver -- it won't legally work the way you'd hope.  And if you live somewhere else, there are bound to be lots of finicky bits to your laws too, which I wouldn't even guess at.






You are right about pretty much all of this, except a receiver legally becomes a gun the moment it is able to be assembled into one, not once it fires a bullet or is assembled. Thats why they sell so called 80% receivers which are mostly complete but need to be milled further to be technically a receiver.  It is legal to manufacture your own gun at home as long as you do not sell it, transfer it to another party, or leave the state with it. This is the main reason the government was so freaked out over 3-D printed guns, because they know under current law they can't do much about it. Gun laws are a funny thing, and they consider possession of all the parts needed to make a specific weapon the same as ownership of that weapon.

For example, I own a semiautomatic AK -47 variant. There is a trigger group kit that is sold from many retailers that allows you to turn a semi-automatic AK variant into a fully automatic rifle. The trigger group by itself is legal, but if I own the gun it fits in and simply order the parts, I can be punished the same as if I have a fully automatic weapon without a license, because they see that as intent. Unfortunately the gun laws in the US are purposely made to be confusing and ambiguous so that people fear to even go there.

Good points. I will have to find a picture of some of the gun markets in the Middle East. They will sell you all sorts of stuff. Then B.S. you by saying "Its ok to bring home, just put in luggage". yeah right.

Can you buy in UK?
I think you are very limited in the U.K. I think even long guns require all sorts of paperwork, and pistols or machine guns are almost unobtainable. Here in the U.S. kids grow up shooting guns and its not a big deal.

Buying anonymously, if caught, means at the least losing your right to buy legally, and depending on what you buy and under what circumstances you're caught, can mean jail time and other unpleasantness.  So, don't do that.

On a trip to another country, you might spot a little open-air market thriving in a jurisdictionally-mysterious area next to the duty-free zone near the airport, where a 13-year-old girl with a sunny smile and adorable Irish freckles that don't match her Asian skin tone, straight black hair, or epicanthic folds at all is managing a cash box and sitting behind a card table that creaks under a load of Galiels, Kalashnakovs, AK's, and BARs.  If you don't bring up ideas like background checks or waiting periods or licenses, she probably won't either.  For all I know she accepts Bitcoin now.   And, now that I think of it, probably isn't thirteen any more. 

And if you need some local flexibility, I'm given to understand her younger (!) brother drives a taxi and one of the first English phrases he learned (because it gets him big tips when he says it) is "now wasn't that much nicer than going through customs?"  But if you buy a gun off that card table, you're being a big idiot.  If you try to bring that gun back into the USA, you're being an even bigger idiot.  No matter how easy it is while you're away, it is never worth the hassle and risk, let alone the expense.  It's a cointoss whether you are at bigger risk of winding up in jail in the US or in the country where you buy, but you've got to figure that risk in when you're looking at the jaw-droppingly cheap prices on that card table.   And you've got to understand that neither she nor her brother gives a crap whether you wind up in jail or whose jail you wind up in, as long as it happens after they get paid.

What's the point of paying with BTC if you can't buy anonymously?

With effort and knowledge you can use BTC anonymously, but it is really a "private and secure" way to buy and not anonymous. The retailer receives only the money and has no access to additional funds. With a credit card you give everything.

I would strongly recommend not trying to buy firearms anomalously. You can pay without a name, but if you were caught with a pistol with no records... Man are you in trouble. You will spend years in prison and forever lose your rights to own firearms. Besides, in the U.S. you can get whatever you want legally. Unless you are already a convict.

That's kinda awesome.  But Jason and his crew don't really give a crap about how powerful it is; he'd be as happy shooting a BB gun if it could reliably hit a target dead center from upwards of a mile away.  Happier even, because then practice shooting wouldn't cost so darn much.  But that far downrange, high-power rounds are the only ones that reliably arrive exactly where the gun was pointing.
I agree. I shoot a .308 at this club: http://winnequahgunclub.org/
But it's not the power as much as the precision. I'm still surprised how you can take a bunch of data and calculate where to shoot. For example, If I want to hit the bullseye from 1000yds. I'm holding about 26 ft. high. Before I joined this club it would not even have occurred to me to take such a shot.

But yes, I would give up the power. In fact i have my eye on a Volquartsen 10/22. These guys make Ruger guns but better than Ruger can make them. Now if I can just convince them to take bitcoin.

A fair amount like the first one on that page, except that the breech is all the way back at the tail end of the stock and the barrel is that much longer (and heavier).

They can be insanely expensive and it is hard to find a range to shoot them. But it is fun to shoot a gun that can punch holes through an engine block.

They are insanely expensive all right.  Jason was paying $15K and up, per piece.  But you're going to pay that when you want something that there's only ever going to be one of.

In the military these are often used in the anti-material role. Rather than launch a risky and expensive attack on a AA missile site you can just shoot a hole through the missile and render the entire system useless.

I have done some long-range target shooting with .50 cal rifles that ...

Pretty sure that shop doesn't accept Bitcoin, but hey, they could surprise me.  

Like these?:

Or these semi auto .50BMG?:
http://shop.centraltexasgunworks.com/catalog.semi-automatic-rifles?&caliber=94

All can be bought for BTC.

I have done some long-range target shooting with .50 cal rifles that the owner had custom made and ordered in from across the country (he lived in Nevada; the rifles were made in Tennesse).  

The darn things are monsters.  Bullpup arrangement with the barrel going all the way back to the shoulder, but it's a darn 48-inch barrel.  Bolt-action breech closure with no magazine whatsoever; you load shells one at a time.  They weigh as much as a jackhammer and they put holes in manhole covers from over a mile away.  And if you're really good, which I'm not, they put holes dead center in manhole covers from over a mile away.  

He used to joke about having one made in .666 caliber and calling it a "light antichrist weapon"

Pretty sure that shop doesn't accept Bitcoin, but hey, they could surprise me.

Last I checked the wait time for the form 4 was like 10 months.   Crazy, just to get a silencer.

My friends abroad are always shocked by this. However, these sales are highly supervised. To buy a pistol online it goes like this:

First you must be 18 and have no felony convictions.

Then you pick out a gun you want from a website and pay.

The gun is NOT shipped to you. It must be shipped to an FFL holder (licensed gun dealer) in your state.

When it arrives at the FFL you have to go and fill out paperwork, then have a background check and in most states there is a waiting period. So you can't get it that day.

A few days later you can come and pick it up. If you are going to carry the gun you will have to submit fingerprints for a more extensive background check. Since I travel a lot with my gun, I additionally have a "Utah" permit that requires a super background check.

There are more background checks and expensive requirements if you want a silencer, short barreled rifle, sawed off shotgun, full-auto machine gun. It's more work and expense than many realize.


Well that makes a lot more sense. Guns aren't that common here in Belgium, so the process does intrigue me Smiley

Have any idea to add deepnet websites? ...

The ones I listed above are all for legal sales in the U.S., but sure. If I lived in a corrupt country with an oppressive government i would not care about the law. It's hard to vouch for those sites though. They are often criminal enterprises and the idea of trust among criminals is a fantasy.



Most of them are scams. It's hard to find an armory TOR website which will actually deliver.

Certainly an interesting list, never considered something like this could be legal...you do need to pick it up yourself or do they even ship it to you?

Have any idea to add deepnet websites? Because there you could find more than enough for firearms  Grin (I don't know whether it is true or not, but i saw many .onion websites providing/selling guns)
