Silk_Road_(marketplace)#Products:
"The site's terms of service prohibited the sale of certain items. When the Silk Road marketplace first began the creator and administrators instituted terms of service that prohibited the sale of anything whose purpose was to "harm or defraud".[16][72] This included child pornography, stolen credit cards, assassinations, and weapons of any type; other darknet markets such as Black Market Reloaded gained user notoriety because they were not as restrictive on these items as the Silk Road incarnations were.[68][73] There were also legal goods and services for sale, such as apparel, art, books, cigarettes, erotica, jewelery, and writing services. A sister site, called "The Armory", sold weapons (primarily guns) during 2012, but was shut down because of a lack of demand.[74][75]"
But gawker.com wrote "Now You Can Buy Guns on the Online Underground Market" and they show a screenshot of Silk Road with a subcategory for firearms. What's right? -- 59twinkler ( talk) 00:39, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
Too lazy to look for source, but my understanding is guns were later moved to the sister site. -- Lenin and McCarthy | ( Complain here) 01:26, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
