    Default What do you think of these listings

    Was browsing gunbroker and armslist and found this. pics is the same in all three…two of the three listings are in CA, one is in TX.

    Not seriously thinking about buying the rifle, just found this to be a strange coincidence.

    Looks like a good deal, you should western union him the money and get it. Might even be able to get a discount being that it's illegal in California since it has one of those shoulder things that goes up, lol.

    Seriously, I'd report it.

    Either a scam or he is cross posting the listing, which does not seem like it would be ok.

    Sell does have positive feedback on gunbroker.com. perhaps that is a real,listing and the others are scams using his photos.

    You can always ask the seller to write your screen name on a piece of paper and hold it next to the item for sale.

    ETA: I'd avoid the sale. I think 2 out of the 3 or possibly all 3 are bogus (recycled old photos). The one image shows the actual serial while the other two don't.

    I contacted the seller for him, this is what I got back.

    I repped him. He did a good job spotting this scammer and bringing him to our attention.

    Eta. I see that armslist tx has removed the listing.
