Don’t send this guy a deposit. He’s texting through a 3rd party app. He’s says he’s in Clintwood not Wytheville like his new VAGT profile. When I pushed him for more proof he sent me a picture of a fake ID. I wasn’t going to send a deposit without some kind of protection. Then I asked for a photo of both guns in the same picture. And he just ghosted

If you live close and he’s real and just scammish then it’s a good deal. But I’m not going to drive 6 hours for a ghost to not show up. Especially after he sent a fake ID.

If mods want to send me a pm or email I’ll send screen shots of all out texts

Sometimes it feels good to be low tech rednecks.

Little more digging looks like they’ve also posted the same listings on Montana gun trader but since I’m not a member I cant see it

I had a deal going with him as well and refused a payment before shipping. He ghosted me today after I suggested we finalize the deal over a phone call. Piece of trash. Thanks for posting this. Stay wise out there.

Was working a deal with him as well, the FFL he was wanted to do the transfer at ( because it was the closest one to him) doesnt do transfers. Found this when I called there to confirm before driving across the state.
