Depending on where you live and local legislation, you may be able to purchase a rifle from a pawn shop, a sporting goods store or even from a private seller through classified ads. Whenever buying a used weapon, it is extremely important to make sure it has been well maintained and is in good order. Rifle barrels get work with age (or rusty with neglect). Other working parts can also be worn or rusty. The gun may not shoot straight any more. If you are not an experienced shooter, you may definitely want to make your purchase contingent on being satisfied after test firing at a range and a licenced gunsmith's endorsement.
