Was referred to the site from a nice employee at Bill's Gun Shop.

I'm 23 years old, pretty new to the gun scene. Bought my first gun (CZ 75B) about 3 months ago. After that I lost my job and am mostly here to try and sell the gun to someone who will be able to enjoy it. I'm sure when the time comes to buy another gun down the road I will be on here doing my research.

Thanks guys!

Welcome from Savage. Sorry about your job. Hopefully you'll hang around after you sell your gun.
Lots of great people here, and plenty of advice, some of it good. :D

I've probably seen every Seinfeld episode at least 100-200 times, I'm an addict :)

Very sorry to hear about the job. Hope you find someone to take that CZ off your hands. Stick around after its sold, you'll have another job soon enough and that trigger finger will get awful itchy...

I feel your pain with the job thing, i was out for 5 months then got a 6 month contract and have recently got some full time offers. So, lets do a bit of networking, what do you do that people are willing to pay for?

Great salesman, master of all thing Microsoft Office along with most other computer programs, I think I'd make a good administrative assistant.


Very delayed response ;)
