    I joined here originally because someone had a gun listed for sale on here that I wanted to buy. And I did buy it, but it was a local face-to-face purchase.

    The low post count doesn't necessarily mean it is a scammer, but I wouldn't ship it to them either.

    get a postal money order and before shipping take the money order to the post office and convert it to cash. I would not deposit it into a checking account as it can take weeks for a forgery to show up at that point you lost the gun and the cash.

    Money first and shipped to an FFL would be the only way I would do it.

    May be a legitimate and legal buyer. If so then sell it but on your terms.

    I am the alleged scammer, and this is exactly what I offered, " Your price is acceptable, would you be willing to accept a postal money order AND ship via a FFL and I would pay for any shipping , ffl fees etc. " the only reason I asked is to avoid a 4 hour drive. I have no problem with him holding the gun until he has cash in hand. Postal money orders are the safest form of payments, thats why I offered it.
    I usually do not participate much on this forum, thats why a low post count..but I do read and learn. I do have a good trader record on a different forum

    ps still interested in the gun, be interesting to see if I get a response and can work out someting agreeable to the seller

    You may not have been referring to me but I never called anyone a scammer.

    I just posted one of the safest ways to do a non face to face transfer.

    Shady, was not referencing to you, but to "themailman", the starter of this post, I contacted him with an offer as I stated above and his reply was to jump to a conclusion and call me a scammer, no conversations beyond that, I am still open to negotiations with him on the gun. the Quotes from you and Dawico were to show that my offer was considered typical. Sorry if I offended you

    none at all.

    I just wanted to make it clear I have no issues with long time members with low post counts.

    Well, I guess I better start posting more just in case I want to buy something one day. Joined the forum back in 2015 when I moved to Texas from Louisiana. I moved back to LA in 2016, but travel to Texas once a month for work. Still follow the forum, but don't post. Would hate to be a scammer one day!

    PS: Please noone get your panties in a bunch..just kidding around. I know we have to have disclaimers in 2019

    So, if you are not a legal resident of Texas, how would you be able to do a private sale purchase here?
