More and more gunsmiths and brick-and-mortar retailers are selling weapons online through their own shops. This trend of digitalization is increasingly taking hold in the hunting industry. Nevertheless, most weapons are still traded through large online platforms such as Gunfinder, eGun, Auctronia, and the VDB weapons market. For hunters and sports shooters, however, it is not only the number of available weapons that is crucial, but above all their quality level.
Gunfinder
Our marketplace Gunfinder has developed into the largest online marketplace for weapons, ammunition, and equipment in recent years. Originally designed as a pure search engine for weapons, Gunfinder now offers a comprehensive platform that brings together all offers from various online shops and marketplaces on a single page – in addition to the offers that are directly listed on our platform. Users can sort the results by price, relevance, or with various filters to find the perfect product.
Thanks to our AI-based identity verification, Gunfinder is the safest marketplace in the industry. Our outstanding customer service, which is available both by phone and email, not only assists our customers with technical questions but also offers comprehensive advice.
Gunfinder impresses with its clarity, the largest product and offer variety, as well as the immense trust that our users place in our platform. This is reflected in our impressive Trustpilot score of 4.6, which confirms the satisfaction and trust of our customers.
eGun
eGun, one of the oldest German platforms for online weapon trading, was launched in the early 2000s. Although eGun is particularly interesting for private dealers, the quality of the offers varies greatly, from like-new products to antiquarian items. Commercial dealers often use eGun to offer products that are difficult to sell on other platforms. The price level on eGun is often cheaper, which attracts buyers but can be disadvantageous for sellers.
Despite its long market history of over 20 years, updates on eGun have been rare. Many users criticize the outdated interface and the inadequate security of the platform.
In contrast, Gunfinder offers a significantly more modern and secure alternative. Our platform uses a search algorithm optimized with the latest artificial intelligence, which allows users to not only find the best offers on eGun but also to compare them directly with offers from other dealers. This way, our users benefit from greater transparency and the ability to always find the best offer on the market.
VDB
The weapons market of the Association of German Gunsmiths (VDB) is considered a popular alternative to eGun. Although the price level on the VDB marketplace is higher, only knowledgeable dealers can offer their products here. For buyers willing to invest a little more for quality, the VDB is a good choice.
Gunfinder naturally integrates the offers of the VDB into our platform. With our advanced search algorithm, you can conveniently find the offers of VDB dealers through the Gunfinder search and compare them with offers from other dealers. This way, you benefit from a comprehensive market overview and the ability to find the best offer for your needs.
Auctronia
Auctronia, launched by the dealer giant Frankonia, is a modern platform that impresses with its appealing user interface. However, some users find the structure of Auctronia too complicated. On this platform, dealers can register separately from private users, ensuring a high quality standard. Auctronia is aimed at shooters and hunters who value contemporary technology and the presentation of high-quality offers in a stylish format when shopping online.
Gunfinder also integrates the offers from Auctronia, providing a comprehensive solution for those looking for the best of both worlds. With our user-friendly and powerful search function, you can not only find the high-quality offers from Auctronia but also compare them directly with offers from other dealers. This way, you gain greater transparency and the opportunity to discover the best deals on the market.
