I would be as hesitant as you are. It looks fishy but...I would look at all the listing sites and
google the gun and really know what it is worth. Along the way I might see the same gun
offered on another site or maybe just the pictures In an old listing, that would make me very
wary. Since an offer doesn’t lock you into a purchase, I‘d make one and see if that generates
a response. Maybe it will start a conversation that gets your questions answered.
Buying sight unseen is always risky. If I really want the piece, if I can afford the loss, and
if I‘m reasonably sure it’s not a scam (usually something too good to be true), I might buy.
I am an optimist, but I am always prepared to be disappointed. The Savage 219 was about
as expected from the pictures with one unexpected plus. The trigger had some work done
and was much better than stock. I was not disapppointed.
