The reason I ask this question is because I recently returned a gun which was misrepresented to me as quite likely 'new'. Well, the gun was not new and had been reblued. I returned the gun and the owner is claiming I shot the gun....I did not fire the gun.... And he claims it now has rings on the action face so I had to have shot the gun. This guy is a crook and is trying to not refund my money in full, but I was wondering just how many shots it takes with a new gun before the rings show up on the action face??

You are dealing with someone who is fraudulent.

Do you have any pics on file that he sent you before the sale?

If you used USPS you may be able to claim mail fraud. Otherwise, you only have the advertising forum rules to help you or the state AG. The state AG may be helpful. Maybe not. But the mention of bringing in the AG of his state, where the sale occurred, may shake the guy into returning your money.

Hi sorry to hear about your dealings. Never fails. If your dealing with a crook, it really does not matter how many shots it takes. He's going to claim you shot it regardless of what you say. Hell, he can even take it out and shoot it until rings show up and say that you did it. Sad that there are folks like that around.

Is this guy a dealer or private party?

Again, sorry!

Good Luck and I truly hope things work out in your favor.

Yes, this thing is a real drag. Purchased from an individual. Makes me A little scary to do an Internet deal again. This was guns international. I've got my lawyer involved now. Guess I will have to wait and see what happens.
