SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Twenty-five years ago, the world’s first firearms-centric auction marketplace was launched. GunBroker.com offered firearms and outdoor enthusiasts a safe and secure place to buy and sell goods.
In the two and a half decades since, what began as an auction-based platform has evolved to offer buy it now pricing, Take a Shot offers, Buy Now buttons on manufacturer websites and self-service seller advertising. Buyer and Brand Stores, coupon and rebate centers and an editorial department have followed.
Looking ahead, the site will soon launch multi-item cart capability along with other new functionalities designed to make the site easier for buyers and more efficient for sellers.
“We’re celebrating the past 25 years, which have gotten us to this point,” said Jared Smith, chief executive officer. “But we’re also deeply focused on how we improve GunBroker.com over the next few months. Over the next few weeks, you’ll see these updates rolling out and we believe these will continue to make GunBroker.com the premiere marketplace for all things outdoors.”
Sellers have come to rely on GunBroker.com to help connect them with a nationwide pool of federal firearm license holders, ensuring a safe, secure network to handle firearms transfers across state lines. This web of dealers helps facilitate firearms transfers that are compliant with all federal, state and municipal regulations.
“We celebrated the anniversary at SHOT Show, but we’re not really big on looking to the past,” Smith said. “To remain the leader in this space, we’ve got to keep Iooking ahead, innovating and improving the site on a constant basis. The next 12 months is going to be evolutionary for certain, and revolutionary in many ways.”
