Purchase a new cz sp01 orange last week.
Dealer tells me it will ship from the warehouse
to my FFL dealer.
like to know the location of this warehouse?
has anyone else order online with some input?
thanks for the help.

I recently ordered a pistol from a large east coast online seller.  When I saw the paperwork at the receiving FFL, the pistol was shipped from a wholesaler in Missouri.  Another transaction the online dealer was in Oklahoma and the pistol was sent from a wholesaler in the Twin Cities area.  In both cases the pistols I bought were obsolete models that had been sitting for a while, both were NIB.

I'm not worried about where the pistol is being shipped from, as long as the transaction is legal.  I also use credit cards so that if the transaction goes south, I can file a dispute easier.  This has never happened to me up to this point.

In both cases I was given a tracking number and I could track the progress of the shipment.  This went a long way in giving me peace of mind during the process.

Good luck and may your SP-01 perform beyond your expectations

Could come from a number of wholesalers warehouses so asking you dealer is best and he should be able to give you tracking which would show where it's coming from.

Many of the sellers on gunbroker don't own the guns they have listed. They will show manufacturer's pictures of various guns. If you call and ask for a serial number or anything specific about the gun listed, they will say it's at a warehouse and can't provide any additional info.  That is how many of the gb sellers operate and therefore have little to no overhead and can usually sell at a cheaper price. Also realize in these instances, you send the money, the seller goes and buys the gun and has it sent to you. So in essence many of these gb sellers are truly "middleman" with no cost of inventory etc., etc.
