So all the people who got convicted for selling firearms on Silk Road, how'd that happen then?

don't conflate Silk Road == all Darknet Markets

plus in North America you don't really need a darknet market to get a gun illegally. US FedGov ain't gonna get to involved in illegal gun sales in Europe.

It didn't happen.

Ctrl-F for "Products" on this page[1] and stop making shit up.

Interesting and surprising they really had rules, thanks for the clarification. I'm ashamed to say I opened this page and read it wrong the first time by skipping the first sentence.
