Using Bitcoin or other crypto currencies to purchase firearms

[Buffalo Soldier]

Has anybody here purchased or sold firearms successfully with a business or in person? As long as both sides confirm PAL with the RCMP, I don’t see it being an issue. I’d like to add a nice shotgun to my family but using some of this Ethereum I have sitting around won’t hurt my pocket.

I'm thinking you wont find anyone on this forum who purchased a firearm with crypto currency. But if you have bitcoin or colour crayons and you find a seller who will take them fill your boots. All that is needed is some form of wampum that the seller wants and you having a PAL. The seller has to confirm that you have a valid PAL. The seller does not produce a PAL.

I think your biggest problem would be the firearm was probably stolen or used in some sort of crime. Its far to easy to find someones info and pretend to be that person long enough to move a firearm. With crypto currencies once they have your money they are gone and your stuck holding the bag.
Not saying there arent honest sellers out there but why take the risk?

I guess using bitcoin probably wouldn't be much different than sending an emt, buyer beware perhaps.
