I have only had one time that I sent a gun back due to an issue. It was a long time ago and the gun was a Winchester Model 88 Rifle. It was advertised as in very good condition and the pictures in the add seemed to back up those claims. When I received it there was a very noticeable crack in the wrist of the stock. I immediately contacted the seller from my FFL's store, and he agreed to take the gun back. Low and behold two weeks later the gun was back at my FFL's store. A note in the box indicated that the seller did not think the crack was present when he initially shipped the gun to me. There was no sign of damage to the shipping container nor inside. The gun was very well packaged, but at this point I knew I was in a loosing situation. I subsequently sold the gun by reducing the price and being honest as to the crack in the stock. The seller was a pawn shop in Colorado. I vowed to never purchase from a pawn shop again.
