The bodgers are a sorry bunch - at least this one wasn't smart enough to try to cover his tracks.

One has to be on the lookout for the cunning ones. I've seen too many bowed bolts and spindles, squeezed action bars, JB Weld and such to last me a lifetime. Things that aren't obvious in the sellers' light of a gun show.

This is why I refuse to do a condition report without a complete strip down. If the seller won't agree to that, he can keep it. I will not have a client in for a nasty surprise.
