A friend proudly showed me the two "ROLEX" watches he had traded two nice Weatherby rifles with Leupold scopes for at a West Texas gun show. Hated to tell him, but the watches were $20 fakes.
Another time I saw a J P Sauer 12GA double gun at a show, for a "reasonable price". After considering seriously, my Guardian Angel told me to give the gun a good hard shake. It had been "shot loose" and was un-repairable. Having shot many high brass and short magnum shells through a J P Sauer without any peep, I still wonder how that once-fine gun had been damaged.
I have learned to ONLY buy firearms from trusted friends or my local Gun Shop.
"Caveat Emptor" !
