We Buy Guns surpasses 10,000 firearms purchased nationwide

[Westfield, Indiana] — April 28, 2026 — We Buy Guns, a leading national online platform for secure firearm valuation and resale, announced today it has surpassed the 10,000-firearm milestone. Since hitting that mark in February, the company’s momentum has continued to accelerate, with total purchases now exceeding 11,000 firearms across all 50 states.

This growth reflects a significant shift in how Americans handle firearm valuation and resale, moving away from local classifieds and toward compliant, digital-first solutions. To date, We Buy Guns has issued over $5.25 million in payments to individual sellers, collectors, and families.

"Our growth is a direct result of solving the 'uncertainty' problem in firearm sales," said Chris Wing, Owner of We Buy Guns. "Selling a firearm can be legally complex and personally stressful. We’ve replaced that friction with a transparent, compliant process that people clearly trust."

The company’s growth trajectory highlights an increasing demand for the service:

• July 2023: 2,500 firearms purchased
• December 2024: 5,000 firearms purchased
• August 2025: 7,500 firearms purchased
• February 2026: 10,000 firearms purchased

The 10,000th firearm purchased was an R Guns TRR15 (5.56mm). This underscores the platform's diverse user base, which ranges from enthusiasts to first-time sellers managing inherited firearms.

We Buy Guns currently generates more than 1,500 purchase offers monthly. By managing all logistics and federal compliance, the platform provides a safe alternative to private-party transactions, which often carry legal and safety risks.

"We aren't just buying inventory; we’re providing a professional exit strategy for gun owners," Wing added. "Whether it’s a single pistol or a 100-piece collection, our infrastructure is built to handle the volume while maintaining a personal touch."
