Look at ad number 955528997(Guns America) and see what you think. The gun pictured should sell for over $20,000 in my estimation. I saw a similar ad for a Kreighoff from a NY seller in Dec. on GA at less than 10% of the value and asked the seller to call me. He sounded foreign and told me he was selling his deceased father's guns and that he did not like firearms. I told him any gun shop in New York City would give him his asking price. This seller is from Florida and joined GA 1/08.
If this is legitimate I would be surprised.

I complained to GA once and they pulled his ad's. He will not accept a bid. It's someone else's turn to turn him in.

You need to be very careful on GA whether on the buying or the selling side. On the average I get about two scam offers to buy every month. Usually they want to send more than the purchase price & want me to ship the gun & the extra money to a middleman. Most of these originate from the UK by Nigerians. They will even send an official looking cashier's check.

On the selling side, as in the foregoing, they offer a gun at a ridiculously low price & want the money up front. Of course you never get the gun. GA has been good about terminating the scammer's account when I report this to them at: customerservice@gunsamerica.com. Michele ususlly responds & tells me that that account has been terminated.

You can usually detect these scam artists by their misspelling, calling the gun an "item", and displaying a general lack of knowledge about what they are buying or selling. BE CAREFUL!

Best Regards, George

Hi, I went to the ga web site and looked and sure enough it was there. I then went to the krieghoff listing and low and behold, there was a krieghoff double rifle in 470 ne for $1500.00 as well. It was the same person selling both. About a hour later both the listings are gone. Deal since the begining of time, or the greatest scam of all time.

You guys that are current with your accounts on GA may want to drop them another line on the new Beretta 471 for $1200 and the new 686 Onyx for $1000 listed by an "Aaron Brit". Smells like the bottom of a tuna boat to me.
