This last christmas at my company christmas party we had a gift exchange where we could steal gifts from other people. I ended up stealing a Nintendo Wii from my boss, and I love it! (But boy was he mad!) He ended up stealing an ipod touch from someone else, though, so he did alright. I recently started selling on eBay, and because of my love of Wii, I have added several wii items for sale. Check them out.

Here is one of the great american traditional bb rifles the "Daisy red ryder carbine" and it could not be sold on ebay. now compare it to the airsoft combat military aggressive hate kill guns. guns designed for mass killing under the guise of toys? You can sell all you got. But my attempt to sell a daisy vintage red ryder bb gun in it's original box, given to me by my Dad over 35 years ago for xmas is not allowed. what gives?

Greeting Gentlemen,
I am new to ebay and your Hunting neighborhood, but I have spent most of my adult life with firearms as a Sargeant honorably discharged from US Army & Reserves after 12 years of service and as a retire NYC Police Officer. I would like to share with you if you would take the time to read this post some basic safety and security issues that I know many of you already know. But your safey is critical to your family and loved ones.

The right to bear arms is one of the basic constitutional rights granted by our founding fathers. One of the main reasons why people own guns is to hunt and protect and defend their families from criminals. I believe as a gun owner it is our responsibility to secure our weapons in a safe place. Locking up our firearms in a gun safe is the best way to protect everyone in the home. Just a thought of encouragement. Also, the way we handle our firearms while hunting is just as important. I pray this is helpful and my apologies if i am a long winded bore.


Common Ways to Carry a Firearm Safely:

Two-Handed or Ready Carry: The rifle or shotgun is held with two hands and the muzzle is pointed up and toward the front. The firearm is in a semi- "port arms" position. The trigger-finger rests on the trigger guard.

Cradle Carry: The fore stock of the firearm is cradled in the crook of the non-trigger arm with the elbow bent. The trigger finger is kept off the trigger and resting on the trigger guard. Care must be taken that hunting companions are not in line with the muzzle, as the gun's barrel is pointed directly to the side.

Trail Carry: The firearm is grasped with one hand at a balance point approximately over the action and trigger. The muzzle points ahead and down. Do not use this carry if companions are walking ahead of you.

Elbow or Side Carry: The firearm is carried by one hand with the stock tucked between the elbow and body. This carry is not advised when walking through dense brush or when others are walking in front of you.

Shoulder Carry: With the fore stock resting on your shoulder, the muzzle of the gun should be pointed skyward. Do not use this carry if someone is walking behind you.

Sling Carry: Using a sling to carry the rifle or shotgun over the shoulder, both hands are free.

When walking side-by-side in a line across a field, hunters at either end of the line should use the cradle or side carry. Hunters in the middle should use either the side or two-handed/rest carry.

When walking in single file the leader may choose any of the carries with the exception of the shoulder carry where the muzzle points up and toward the rear. Hunters in the center of the line should use the two-handed or cradle carry. The last hunter may use the two-hand, cradle, sling, or shoulder carry.
