Terms of Service
Last updated: June 11, 2026
1. Platform role
Missouri Gun Trader is a Missouri-focused discovery index for firearms and related gear. The platform aggregates publicly available listing information from community sellers and selected third-party shop websites to help buyers search, compare, and set alerts. Missouri Gun Trader does not buy, sell, transfer, ship, store, inspect, broker, finance, or take title to firearms, ammunition, accessories, or other listed items. Missouri Gun Trader is not a federal firearms licensee (FFL), escrow provider, transfer agent, or party to any transaction between users or third-party retailers.
2. Third-party aggregation disclaimer
External listings displayed on Missouri Gun Trader link to third-party websites and shops. Those listings are indexed for discovery only. Missouri Gun Trader does not verify third-party inventory, pricing, availability, or seller representations. Clicking an external listing leaves Missouri Gun Trader and opens the source site, where that site's terms, policies, and transaction rules apply. Users must confirm all item details directly with the source shop or seller before purchase or transfer.
3. Eligibility (18+)
You must be at least 18 years old to access or use Missouri Gun Trader. By creating an account or continuing past the age acknowledgment, you represent that you meet this requirement. You may not use the service on behalf of a minor or help a minor access marketplace content. The platform does not verify age or identity; misrepresenting eligibility may result in account suspension or termination.
4. User responsibility for lawful transactions
Users are solely responsible for understanding and following all applicable federal, Missouri, and local laws before listing, contacting another user, meeting, transferring, shipping, receiving, or possessing any item. If a transaction requires an FFL, background check, permit, age verification, residency check, or other legal step, users must complete that step outside the platform.
5. Account and listing rules
- Provide accurate account, listing, location, and contact information.
- Do not list prohibited items, unlawful services, or content that encourages illegal conduct.
- Do not evade moderation, rate limits, verification, or trust and safety controls.
- Do not harass, threaten, impersonate, defraud, or misuse another user's information.
6. Moderation and enforcement
Listings may be reviewed before publication and may be rejected, removed, or retained for audit if they appear unsafe, incomplete, misleading, unlawful, or inconsistent with platform rules. User reports, contact attempts, sale confirmations, and moderation actions may be retained to support safety, abuse prevention, and operational review.
7. No guarantee of transaction outcome
Missouri Gun Trader does not guarantee listing accuracy, user identity, item condition, legal eligibility, payment, transfer completion, or buyer/seller conduct. Users choose whether and how to proceed with any communication or transaction at their own risk.
8. Cooperation with lawful requests
The platform may preserve and disclose account, listing, contact, moderation, and audit records when required by law, valid legal process, emergency safety needs, or to enforce these terms.
9. Changes and continued use
These terms may be updated as the service matures. Continued use after updated terms are posted or acknowledged means you accept the updated terms.
Pending legal review: this page is a platform policy draft for product launch readiness and is not legal advice. Users should consult qualified counsel for legal questions.
