If he just sold it outright he would be either committing a lie of commission or omission. Unless of course he fully discloses, but good luck finding a buyer then. I also don't think it is any better to sell it to a gun shop either because they are just going to turn around and sell it to someone also.
Contacting customer service seems like the obvious choice.
Honestly the true shame is the rule that forces private sellers to ship handguns overnight which makes it all but impossible to sell a cheap handgun over the Internet with any sort of return on the initial price. There are people on this and other forums that enjoy fixing guns but a $60-70 shipping bill kind of kills that.
