By hook or by crook…
This was bandied about a few years ago, too. The moral of this story, other than that .gov needs to mind its own business, is that paying cash whenever possible is never a bad idea.
Guns and ammo, I always pay cash. Preferably private party gun sale .
Copy that.
Crook being the key word here. I never use credit cards. Period. To easy to get into trouble. And in this age of despots and tyrants to damn easy to track.
I am in the process of finding and buying a Faraday wallet for my phone. Even though the feature that tracks my movements is off. Is it really? No use taking chances.
No, geolocation is never off. At a minimum, your phone has to hit cell towers to be able to receive signals. Triangulation and all that.
A faraday container is truly the only way short of leaving it at home. Even a dead battery isnt even a sure thing as capacitors in the phone give it some minimal trickle electricity for a while.
The short answer is your phone can still be pinged by the carrier.
Commander:
I’d only buy with a card items (of whatever type) that I didn’t mind being traced…
Cash is king!
Ceejay
Makes one wonder the logistics of this kind of operation.
Visa: Hello Mr. Jimbo it appears our records indicate a purchase of some guns and ammo on your visa card.
Jimbo: Silence
Visa: Hello?
Jimbo: Silence
Visa: OK, thanks for being a customer.
If they report the sale to the authorities, what’s next? They show up at your door to ask questions? Don’t answer the door, don’t answer questions, stfu, easy game. All people have to do is nothing and they will still screw that up.

Using cash will work until they force digital money on you.
Then we circumvent their evil machinations by going to barter and use precious metals.
There was a time when money was not allowed by the peasant class. They lived by barter. It worked well for centuries.
The indigenous people in North America were still using that system when the French and English first came here. It worked then as well. They traded furs for items the Europeans had. No money was exchanged till years later. In the beginning of worked well.
You really don’t think the new 87 thousand IRS agents are being hired as PR agents to give the corrupt IRS a warm and fuzzy feel to it do you.
We need to repeal the NFA34, GCA68 and the remnants of Bubba’s AWB which the National Vegetable insists he wrote and passed all by himself. Then there is no reason for BATFE to exist. This agency was organized in 1919 to go after Volsteadt Act violations. You know. Elliot Ness. After repeal they gave them jurisdiction over firearms. When the NFA34 was signed they really went to town. The late Congressman from Michigan John Dingle was at one time a life member of the NRA. He coined the term ” Jack Booted Thugs to describe the average agent. That’s before he lost his mind. Married a woman much younger and went full blown Commie Lib. I’m 68 I was 8 months old when Dingle entered Congress. I was in my late fifties when he retired. He was the consummate poster boy for term limits.
I lived in Dingell’s district for years.voted for him many times,until he went Commie/
So you and I are in the same state? I see that one of writers for Firearms News also lives in Michigan and on your part of the state. I’m on the other side along the I-94 corridor.
List of names for a violation of rights lawsuit, millions of suits in every state,bankrupt them and leave them to starve in the cold. Make the children watch as they are perp walked out and everything sold,if anyone tries to help them, take it and sell it. They can have nothing and we can be happier.
