Dean – No ventilated rib (see picture below) and no I have not and do not intend to purchase the gun.
I too was alarmed by the price tag and curious to see if there was anything, beyond the price tag, that stood out to you guys. They did admit that they had it overpriced and suggested I make an offer to which I responded that I was not prepared to do and also did not want to offend them. After talking little further they revealed that one of their buyers overpaid for it giving $5k and that they’d take less than that for it. Again, I was not interested and did not make an offer.
Brian- In regards to the dried gun oil on the receiver there appears to be the same effect on the trigger guard (see picture below) which made me think it was from a stock refinishing.
