I'm not sure how much one really misses out by not shipping. I've done my fair share of buying/selling/trading and I've extremely rarely specifically said "no shipping" in my ads, but I can recall only a time or two that anyone has ever even asked... and of those one was a Californian and I didn't wanna mess with their laws about what's even legal to own over there. Basically, I don't get the impression that's there's a vast sea of buyers on this forum that would be buying my stuff if only I'd been willing to ship. In general I'd ship things like parts, accessories, or magazines but not firearms or ammo just because of the hassle and relative expense.
