It's coming up for auction within 30 days and I don't want the competition. lol For that reason, it is often not a good idea to post queries with any details about a firearm you are interested in buying, until the auction has ended. The "competition" will often work to track it down. Posting a photo makes it even easier. It isn't very hard to do a reverse image search in order to track down the source Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug
