Anyone has any idea how to advertise shop that is selling firearms via Fb ads. ?

Its fully legit shop, however facebook is shitting because of the niche, there are other products like specialised clothes etc... But facebook is limiting and denying ads coz of the guns
 
It's really hard, it takes a unique idea for advertising, to be able to sell gun products on FB

Am kinda clueles what else to try, all that i have tried failed, as soon as they see the gun on the landing page, or see it mentioned , ad gets denied
 
even in the form of video and GIF ?
 
Advertising for firearms are against the Ads Policies:
https://www.facebook.com/policies/ads/prohibited_content/weapons
I was in touch with a prospect and I tried to solve his rejected Ads with Facebook, because they actually didn't sold firearms but hunter supply... but no chance once a firearm or a survival knife is on the Images of their LP it will end up in a rejection

It's something they won't allow, check their T&Cs.
 
Threaten to shoot them if they don't run your ads. Might have to be subtle, let them know you also sell RPG's.
Also, don't forget to offer everybody who buys a gun a free gun.
Already gave some free guns to facebook staf to approve my ads, but they have been lying
 
Why don't you try to run the ad to a messenger popular in your country or to a quick quiz landing page, not your main website. And you have to be careful with the text and creatives. I've had a lot of troubles running campaigns for a tactical flashlight, Facebook though it was a weapon or even a dildo. :D
 
Some guy did it a few years ago but he put a humour spin to it and basically blurred out and beeped any gun related thing... I think it was on Facebook. It was a video ad and it was hilarious

You have to do some trick but be informed that those type of ads re prohibited on FB.
You'd risk your account as well.
