He sent the gun back… the post was getting long, and I wanted to shorten it. I thought I had left that part there. Sorry.

He said we would work something out in response to an email I sent after I discovered he had refinished the gun.

I originally sent him an email when I saw the listing. I wrote that if the gun was all original, I would take it. He said the gun was all original, except he thought "the barrels might have been refinished". I said OK.

When I discovered he had purchased the gun at auction and had it completely refinished, I called him on it!

He lied about the gun; he insinuated that he knew nothing about its history by saying, “I think the barrels might have been refinished,” But he knew the history of the gun because he had purchased the gun at auction and had it completely refinished.

When did I mention a lawyer?
