I found an AK that is 1300 new and the guy is willing to part with it for 850. He wants me to send half the payment before he ships the gun to my FFL....
I have a weird feeling in my gut about this, I was thinking i could have him bring his gun to his FFL, then have my FFL call his FFL to verify he actually has it and then have it shipped? I reverse image searched the pictures of the gun and got no results..... does this sound like a scam? His messages not coming in very proper English either, which is also making me suspicious. If i contact his FFL while the gun is there, is it safe to send half the payment at that point?
Anyone used a good escrow service for Armslist deal before?
Also general Armslist tread, scam thread, and buy/sell/trade thread

OP here
He's offering to have me drive to 1200 miles to pick it up in person, and I'm debating on doing that and just CC'ing when i meet him
Obviously a scam. Don't let your greed get the better of you.

Gasmoney nigga.
Just buy something that doesn't seem like a spicjew murderscam.
>>32451983
This is dumb. It'd be cheaper to buy an overpriced ak than travel to buy a "deal."
>>32451968
YOU NEVER buy stuff on armslist unless it's FTF. Use a fucking GunBroker and stop overthinking it

You are a naive mother fucker, this has scam written all over it in bright red letters, send him one thin cent. Also as for pics with time stamp and see if he delivers

Pic related.
"There you go, big boy. Half the money"
(protip: If you send him slightly less than half, you can send the remaining part to the federal reserve and recover whole bills.)

it's alright anon, nids are such shit now it probably wouldn't be worth it. Maybe by the time you find friends to play with a new codex will be out
>>32455898
Eh. Unlikely. I tried hangin around the hobbyshop tryna find friends but we all know how that goes.
Looks like playing bots on DoW2 will have to suffice.

>1200mi isn't a one day drive
babby's first drive
fairly certain you'd have to transfer at an FFL once you got there though so what's the point? you can buy long guns from FFLs out of state while there but isn't that all you can do without shipping shit to a FFL in your state of residence?
