Have a gunsmith check out any firearm you buy from a pawn shop. It's not a complex or time-consuming procedure, so it shouldn't cost much.

As I said above, only $50 for a gunsmith to check the weapon, cut down the barrel, re-install the bead front sight and clean up the cut-down job so it looks like the gun was manufactured that way.
