I'm sitting here thinking about the few guns I've bought off the Net. I think only one of them, a Parker, was as described when I opened the box. The rest all had negatives that were conveniently not mentioned on the websites or even in phone conversations. From major dealers too, and major issues. One C Daly fwt wasn't out of the box long enough for my box cutter to cool off - it was a wreck. Top rib totally flapping loose for at least 8" and other issues related to the poor redo. I think if I had shot one shell in it the bbls would have separated and fallen onto the ground. Unbelievable - and not from a small dealer that one. And it seems that you always hear, "Gee, I didn't notice that here in the shop".... right.
