I listed stuff I could not find in that exact listing turned into a big waste of time. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that! Jerry Herbst

One of the things on that listing was no FFL required. I know the gun is old but I like knowing there is someone with an FFL involved especially on firearms when doing business with someone I can't look in the eye.

It can only be shipped legally through an ffl. I don't know what WI law is. It may be legal to sell face to face there but that firearm meets the restrictions of the gun control act of 1968. Either its a scam or the seller is trying to get a federal gun violation felony. Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

That not rated member and deal just smells funny. you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!
