If you can’t be honest and sell to the first person that posts an “I’ll take it” move the [bleep] on to Gunbroker. Some posts list variances but most don’t. Face to face deals are tempting, i understand that but be clear in your post, if not you look like a [bleep] douchebag.

There are a lot more ½" rifles than ½" shooters.

I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Not for nothing SB I know I haven’t been on this site very long but I have personally seen this happen to you 3 times already. A mans word is all he’s got in this crazy world. List something for sale, someone says they will buy it for full asking price. And you go ahead and sell it to someone else. Makes zero sense to me.

I think they should be run off if they can’t play in the sandbox. Integrity is all that is required. I’ve largely quit buying on here after a seller stuck me bad on a rifle. Just plain lied. I ate close to $1K on that.

I ate close to $1K on that. Had a seller here sell me a Winchester 101 with an offset site and the action almost locked up after the second shot, I didn’t fire it for so long I had deleted his info, wish I still had his info.

I had someone do it to me on another site the douce was nice and sent me a pm that another member pm’d him shortly after my post offering more than his asking price and he was selling to him. Both are $hitty moves.
