    Gunbroker seller not responding

    Easy to find revolvers. I was specifically looking for a DW 15-2 frame in nice shape for about $100 less than I spent on GB with an 8" barrel I could sell for $350-400 and I've got several other 15-2 barrels to use on the "new" one. I've been happy with every GB purchase I've made which has been...

    Gunbroker seller not responding

    I just bought a revolver through GB from a small FFL who doesn't accept credit cards. He also had several reviews of poor communication because he works days and works in his gun shop(home) at night. I asked for more pictures that I never got and a few days prior to my sending USPS MO the ATF...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    I bought a Dan Wesson Model 15-2 357 Magnum with a 8VH barrel which shipped yesterday. Always a crap shoot buying online but I've been lucky so far with condition. Stay tuned, we'll see when it gets here. Only a few not so great photos to go by.

    do you stop shooting before taking air travel?

    Twenty years ago I was going through TSA when I realized I was wearing the shoes I wore the day before when loading 1000 pounds of Ammonium Nitrate(ANFO) in blasting bore holes at a blast site. I went right through with no problems. I did have in my wallet an explosives license to show if it had...

    Since it varies day to day, today's favorite is the Dan Wesson 15-2 357 Magnum with the "new" 1979 V4 barrel that arrived yesterday.

    Bought a Dan Wesson 15-2 V4 357 barrel in original box that looks amazing for 45 years old.

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    I won a GB auction for DW barrel & seller suggested I expedite the USPS MO because some were taking up to 3 weeks to arrive in Florida. I did expedite it for $9 Friday, arrived Monday(CT to Florida). Another MO I sent regular mail to Vermont last Monday. We'll see.

    Wife's fathers Trooper from his years with state police for sentimental reasons. Model 15-2. Model 10-7 snub with Peruvian Crest because it's pretty unique. Model 65-2 3" 357 because it carries so well and I love 3" K frames.

    Would you have taken the chance? (GB purchase)

    I also bought a 15-2 frame several years ago and paired it with a CZ/USA 4 inch barrel but would love a 3.

    Actually a search does turn up a relationship between a pig and his name. He just contacted me (Tuesday)ATF showed up last Friday & was doing a "full audit" right now and GB matters are taking a back seat. Hope he's got his Snit in order.

    Would you have taken the chance? (GB purchase)

    As far as "fake bid wars" goes I was wondering myself if the last FFL bidding was a buddy of seller, who's also FFL, to bump the price up so I checked him out. FFL bidding was from Washington state and seller from Vermont so highly unlikely. Happens the FFL bidding had an identical Model 15-2...

    Would you have taken the chance? (GB purchase)

    Barrel alone in excellent condition is worth @$400 walnut grips with DW inserts probably $75. Barrel assembly takes about 60 seconds to remove if I take my time.Worst case the rest of parts are worth a couple hundred at least. I've got 2 other 15-2s that may need parts in the future. DW...

    I found the seller on a Vermont FFL list with the same address as the one he provided. Feel good about the deal now & believe he's legit. Can't be too carefull these days. Pics off dusty computer screen.

    Would you have taken the chance? (GB purchase)

    While browsing GB looking for a Dan Wesson 15-2 357 frame I spotted a nice looking 15-2 with an 8" barrel high bid of $405 with one day left in auction. Hardly a turn line on the cylinder & nice walnut DW target grip. Figured the barrel was worth @$400 & grip $75. Red flag no credit cards...

    As I said in post#1, the following range trip I shot 150 rounds with the same revolver using Winn SPP and all fired first strike. No FTF

    I stand corrected. Can I blame it on 73 year old eyes? Sorry for the misinformation I posted and correcting me.
