How are folks selling their firearms online these days? Do you list on certain sites?

I sell on Gunbroker. They reach a pretty large market and sale prices are generally good. There is a bit of a learning curve with the processes but its easy once you figure it out.
Bought a number of guns, and some ammo and lightly used or like new scopes there...selling gas a reputation of being a pain in the Butt after changes in recent years. If you have a common gun I'm not sure you wouldn't do better with less hassle selling other ways. Uncommon or older in great condition it makes more sense IMO. I've been thinking about selling a rare Remington one but prices seem to have come down.

I might try Guns International first.

Not sure 311s are worth much in 12. They are solid guns (I have a similar old Stevens 5100) but don't seem to generate much interest there were a lot of them made. If it's choked IC/Mod it would get more interest I think..
 
There seems to be 3 general strategies on Gunbroker.

1. Since it’s free to list, list it for over value and let it sit there for months hoping someone buys it. This seems to be the majority of sellers, which is annoying.

2. List it for around what it’s worth and keep relisting until it sells.

3. Start an auction for $0.01 and let it roll. The majority of the time this gets close to the blue book value but sometimes the buyer gets a great deal.

I’ve done 2 and 3. The prices I’ve got were good. I’ve bought and sold on GB. Everything has been good except for one Ahole buyer.

I’ve bought/sold a bunch locally too. I used Sportsman’s warehouse parking for transfers. No one is going to panic seeing a gun there.

So sorry. I meant to say how is everyone selling their firearms? Gun broker?
I have a Steven’s 311 d 1960’s side by side double trigger to sell or trade
Just picked up one of these at a pawnshop a few weeks ago. Shot a pretty good round of trap with it, and took for a pheasant hunt, so far. Fun gun!
FWIW, I paid $350 for it.
