Texas Gun Trader...
I clicked on texas guntrader today in my morning ritual to find their domain name has expired...Maybe an administrative error or maybe another source allowed to die in the vine...This is the second gun source to disappear on me in as many months, Cabela's being the other one since their Gun Library function no longer allows for specific searches...
I'm beginning to notice a pattern here... ...Ben

I visit a Ruger forum on occasion and yesterday I got a notice my account has been suspended. I've never seen that before and wonder whats going on there.

It appears they have lost their domain name and it is not a glitch. No way to find them or get to any site operated by Texas Gun Trader online.
There are posts out there that state the website has been gone for two years.
Cabelas now calls the location to search for vintage and previously owned guns "Used Guns" found on the bottom of their landing page.

They probably found out you were on the S&W forums too...

I was on ruger.com yesterday. Today the site has been suspended.
Interesting...

Maddog, they must be having tech problems with the Ruger site. I've gotten several different postings every time I've tried them the last two days.

Glad it is back working. I have found a few older S&W revolvers there over the years.

I understand that Cabela's is going to re-open it's Gun Libraries. They were closed due to COVID-19. I'm told it is a couple months away.
