Interesting. Over on the Gunbroker chat board I posted a notice of the fradulent sale and the moderator removed it within a day. Not surprising though, I knew the post was out of line but did it anyhow.

I'm not sure Gunbroker can be expected to police all it's auctions. Certainly there must be a large number of misrepresentations--some innocent and some intentional--and it would not be possible to have expert knowledge in all fields.

Actually, buying on auction sited is always "caveat emptor". If someone gets suckered into this gun as being legitimate I almost feel they deserve the penalty do their lack of due diligence.
