My business partner was long time hood friends with the former owner. He arranged a meeting in our offices where we walked thru the web analytics. I was shocked to see how much traffic went to the site and how much it made on Adsense. We were trying to learn best practices for maximizing Google revenue. After that meeting, I became a domainer full time. Congrats on the sale. Guns.com is what initiated my interest in domains.

The domain name sold and DC got paid and released the name to the new owner. Just my guess... More likely that domain capital financed the last deal.
