So I got a line on a package deal for a Glock 17 and a Glock 18 for $1500, the guy will even ship it right to my house. Seems legit right?
Here's the ad: http://www.gunlistings.org/georgia-gun-classifieds/savannah/pistols/59631/glock_17_and_glock_18_9mm Here's my email exchange: Me: Hello, I'm interested in the 17/18 package. How would you handle shipping to my FFL in Florida? Thanks.. Him: Hi, im sorry I cant do that. There were times when they lost 3 of my weapons, at my loss. I would ship certified mail to your home, other wise I cant help you bro. |

Here's his ad on another site it says he's in New York LINK

It would seem the guy is trying to rip someone off. Unless Airsoft pistol are really expensive. I dont know, havent ever bought one.
|
|
Yep. And only a few miles from me..... Wonder if he'd do a FTF sale. |

|
is it me or does all his listings seem shady and fucked up?
All look faked or ripped from someone else. |
|
Found some other listings of his on the same site, he's got some real nice stuff available. He must travel for his job.

there is a VERY faint watermark in the photos that point to this website http://www.modelguns-worldwide.com/index.htm Interesting...
|
|
LOL!!!
Look at his "other listings"... He is listed as selling all over the country, and trying to sell assault weapons (I know) in Lawn Guyland! Do you think it's a sting operation? |

ATF's new sting op - Slow and Calm.
No way someone can get hurt, unless they put an eye out. |

The ad for the Desert Eagle says he will trade for a Glock 17, of which he is trying to sell one in another ad
Very interesting...... ETA: Every ad says he is willing to trade for something he already has and is trying to sell...... |

I know a Nigerian Prince that would be very interested in his wonderful deals.....
|
|
I know it's obvious by now, but look at the guide rods on those Glocks.

Quoted:
Shouldn't he giving those to the mexicans? If he actually lives in Patchogue, NY he shouldn't have to search for very long. |
|
The guide rods don't look right, and what are the chances of having two NIB Gen II's ?
Did they even make Gen II 18's?? |

Oh yeah, well... used desert eagle 50 .cal . this gun is in exellent condition. its a steasl deal for 900.00 . i am willing to trade for a revolver higher than a 38.cal unless its in perfect condition and must be crome. i would prefere a 357. magnum. With spelling like that, you know he's on Arfcom somewhere. |

I'm not a Glock nut, but I thought that a Glock 18 was not a select fire weapon but an FA weapon. The Glock 17, with auto sear, is the select fire transferable NFA authorized weapon.
ETA: After further research I have seen the error of my thoughts. Like I said I'm not a Glock officianado. Sorry. |
|
Here is the Glock 17 pistol he's selling.
Dude's got a scam going doesn't he? He never really claims that they're real firearms and any out of state buyer has no recourse except to complain to the law that while attempting to conduct an illegal interstate firearms transaction, he was duped and sold a replica. Somebody need's to straighten him out. |

If you look at the bottom of the Glock 17 box, it says manufactured in Tokyo. Didn't know Glock moved their operation to Tokyo?

What's funny is that the ad had 12 views right before I posted this, now it's close to 600.

So he can legally send those to you (we know they are fake) than you ask him for the FFL where you can send the trade to. I am sure he will not want to do this since his last FFL lost 3 Guns |

No such thing as a transferable Glock 18 even if it was real.
