It has to be that, or it's simply a bogus listing.

Part of what adds to the skepticism, is this is their first, and only ever GI listing.

Could be they do not have much experience selling guns, but if that's the case... That's one heck of a way to break the ice on that.

He knows something about a gun, but he may be selling these guns on consignment.

If I thought this was anything but a scam I would do a face to face.
It is close enough to me.

The sellers phone number was shown in the ad so I called. It went to voice mail, with the message "the mailbox is full". I wonder why.

The truth is "if" it is all four guns for that price they'd already be gone and "if" this isn't a scam somebody would get a screaming deal!
His number one mistake was not making it perfectly clear!

I would pay $100 to see Murphy write the check for these.

Bill just said that he would supervise Bob making a package deal on the gun.

I have made some serious mistakes in the past by not just getting in the car and driving to see guns like this.
