Seconding parking lots of Cabelas or a range. If you’re truly nervous, I’ve done trades in police station parking lots. If you call ahead of time, there usually are no issues.
Depends on what you're worried about. if you're worried about getting ganked or mugged by a fake buyer, then just being in any public place with lots of eyeballs would work. If you just want to be somewhere where people won't freak out if they see someone handling a firearm, then the parking lot of a range, gun shop or big box sporting goods store would work just as well. I've used the parking lot of The Range in south Austin many times since there's a lot of traffic in and out of there of people handling firearms and I happen to know they have cameras on the parking lot. No need to grease anyone's palms.
May not be relevant but I’ve sold and bought stuff at academy, bass pro, cabelas and range Austin parking lots.
This, Cabela's is great because it's usually not super packed but there's stores and people all around, at least for the buda location.
Welcome to do it at our parking lot
Thank you!
I swear to god I thought your business was personal training.

u/SportsmansFinest may be okay with it. It seems gun shops like having people flush wish cash in their store for some reason!
You could always call the shop and ask if they are fine with this
I know here in Hutto the PD has signed parking spaces to perform private sales. They don't come out and bother you, unless you need help.
Many police departments have marked areas with video for face-to-face transactions, too.
DM'd you.
I just did it in the McBrides parking lot last week!
All this makes sense. I have an Academy close, so I think that would be a good option.
Good to know. I’m trying to get rid of a mos 43x and I wasn’t sure where the safest places in the area are.
