I purchased a 4 inch S&W 686+ in 1999 for $437 in San Diego. Current NIB price in $684. The purchasing power of the USD has decreased significantly since 1999. Selling for more than $437 is not "making a profit". Selling through an FFL will shield you from the profit accusation, but you will probably take a bath vs the current private party market value.

Should be able to sell a gun to another person through a gun shop with an FFL who calls in the background check for a fee too.
You are right, you seldom get a good price for a gun from a gun shop.
