Oh My. Thanks! I had no idea where to find 50 rounds of .22 ammo. My life is complete!

And you can get a Glock 17, maybe even with one magazine, it doesn’t say, for a price that translates to $903.17 in US dollars.
What a deal! Only about 2x the price of a good used one, and only 1.8x the price of a brand new one!

The comments at gawker suggest that some of these sales are in/into countries other than the U.S..

Probably some country where people have a real right to keep and bear arms, unlike the US where it’s frequently imaginary and all too often illegal.

The amusing thing is that apart from the unspecified “9mm machine pistol with silencer”, they’re all just plain handguns, and mostly very boring ones.
Even the “AR-style tactical pistol” is still Just A Pistol.
Chas: No, the idea there is that he’s selling to European countries where there’s no right to arms at all – in other words to gangs and general criminals, most likely.
Realistically, the US has about the most extensive and best protected general right to keep and bear arms in the world, except perhaps for Switzerland (where they’re trying to roll back, unlike our expansion).

I doubt the gangs and criminals have to resort to this; I wouldn’t be surprised if they were going largely to the libertarians.
