Tell your family that California is due west.
Actually Brownsound says he's in Houston so he/she could tell them to head 1155 miles WWNW to the Yuma, AZ border crossing into California.
Brownsound, this is a direct "as the crow flies" route so you'll want to tell them to wear some food hiking boots and take along some sunscreen (not that weak ass spray on Bull Frog Bullshit), a couple of sack lunches and some bottled water.
If someone in the departing group knows how to use a compass give them these coordinates: latitude: 32° 42' North
longitude: 114° 37' West
OR
You could just send them to an IHOP inside the Houston loop for lunch. Guaranteed they'll come back in a much more "guns for law abiding citizens" state than before they left.
I think he was asking if he could do a FTF deal inside a gun shop.
I suggest going back to Gander Mountain where you bought it, tell them about the problem and see if you can get a refund, assuming it is still unfired, of course. Barring that, ask them if you can do a FTF private sale inside their shop or if they will sell it for you on consignment.
This is probably the best advice in this thread for the OP's particular situation, lack of experience and over-all reservations due to the his/her lack of experience and situation.
Good luck
Another option I don't think has been mentioned yet is to take it to a LGS that will put it up for sale on consignment.
It's out of the house, you get to set your price, the LGS staff deals with any customers for you.
Just a thought.

I would say that now that it has been 24 hours since OP with only one single OP reply and no further activity on his/her part that this thread is dead and all we're doing is providing info to the anti-machine.
And before you say "we haven't recommend he/she do anything unethical/illegal (outside of my initial joke post)"... Yeah, words are frequently twisted to fit the agenda.
If I'm right shame on you Brownsound for using the trusting nature of the good, law abiding citizens here. If I'm wrong, please accept my apology and continue on.

I saw that. I also saw where he/she has an account on TexasGunTrader.
Sorry about the super late reply guys. Just went to Carter's Country and got a quote for $350 and yea... that got a big no from me. Gander has a no return policy for handguns so thats a no go. I'm willing to take a small loss but not 800 dollars of it. So yea still have to figure out how much I can actually sell this for and when I'm qualified I'll post up an ad here. And thanks for the advise, still don't like the idea for the parking lot thing but I guess I'll have to deal with it.
