We had been working on a deal for five days and agreed to meet in Richmond for me to pick up a 54 Anschutz rifle.
He even marked it sold and I asked was it for me and responded with yes and we were still good to go.
Maybe I should have gotten his wife's permission..

Conversations:

From chris
To: Ron 9/1/14: Took a look down the barrel and it looks clean I would be glad to take it to a gun shop tomorrow and have it looked at to verify its good as I am no professional.
I definitely dont want to mislead you or waste either of our time.

From chris
To Ron 9/2/14: I didnt get a chance to take it anywhere today to have the barrel checked it was a very busy day at work but im sure I could do it tomorrow. If you are sure you want it and want to meet in Richmond on Saturday then I will mark it sold. Im still getting pms and texts about it and im over the run around you seem like a stand up guy so im willing to make the trip. Thats very nice set up with the rifle you sent pics of the idea when I bought the rifle was to fix it up and get in to the competitions but there isnt any of that in this area and its hard to find time to get out to a descent range with work and the kids. Let me know and we will set up a place and time.

As long as there is no visible pitting, should be fine. I can always re-barrel it.

I understand busy.

How about Saturday 9/6 near Ashland around 10-11 am. That is right off 64 and about 1/2 way for both of us.
We could do Greentop or Bass Pro parking lot if either works for you. Or I am open to options.
I would be driving a DARK red Dodge Ram. And my Cell is : (REMOVED)
Let me know if this is workable for you. We are in agreement for $450, correct ?
If so, I will have a BOS and a copy for you with me.

I have a va license but no ccw or voter id I hope that isn't a problem since im only selling and not receiving a fire arm I do have a va state inspector license which is actually harder to get than a ccw so I am told ...u cant have felonies and have to pass a background check and credit check to show you are a person in good standing. Its about a 3 month process before you even take a test. The other thing I was going to ask is my wife has to go out of town this weekend so I will have the two little ones and have to do a morning project with them could we possibly meet at 2pm instead of 11am.

I suppose it goes without saying, will need to show Virginia D/L and preferably a CCW or Voter ID. I will do the same.

The ID should be fine.
2:00 PM is going to be hard to manage though.
