Got this today:

"Hi,

I hope I'm not bothering you.

If you are still looking to buy the rifle, reach out to Lewis in Indiana, he has a Remington 7615 Police. 5.56 NATO for sale.

His email address is lewisware400@gmail.com

I thought you might want to check him out and I was hoping to help. Thanks for your time.

Greg. "

I forwarded the message to one of the mods just before my post here because I saw the same mod responding to a similar issue in this forum. Luckily he responded quickly.

I was wondering if there was some sort of reporting function on this site, or some kind of generic moderator address so that whichever mod happened to be online could see to an issue soonest.

If you are still looking to buy the gun, reach out to Lewis in Indiana, he has a NAA Revolver for sale.
