Notice to all regarding purchasing from Mr. Michael Frane of Torrance,CA. Last month I purchased a 1922 Springfield training rifle from this individual. He had e-mailed several pictures and everything looked fine so I went ahead with the purchase. When the rifle arrived I found that the stock had been cut down for a smaller shooter, the military buttplate had been refitted and the shortening was hard to detect in the photos. Also when the rifle arrived at my FFL, the bolt had just been placed in the case against the comb of the stock. The result was a badly marred stock comb from the bolt rubbing against it while in transit. After several e-mails back and forth Mr. Frane agreed somewhat grudgingly to refund $100.00. So far I have not seen his check, nor do I have reason to believe that I will. Future buyers need to beware of doing business with this individual, you have been warned.
