a scam artist on armslist

Greetings Fellow Black Powder Fans -

if you want a laugh, check out this scam artist from missouri. he's had this ad up in various forms for over 8 months.

http://www.armslist.com/posts/787045...p--make-offer-

Remington and Sons 1858 Rifle, New Model. 44 Ball/Cap "Make Offer" $ 4,500

he started out posting it as an "original piece of the old west" and presented it as an original.

I emailed him several times to tell him that he had a beat-up italian replica,
and pointing out ALL the differences between an original and that replica.

when he ignored 3 direct emails I contacted armslist and told them if he kept it up
i'ld call missouri state A.G. and FBI for interstate antique fraud.

then he changed the listing to what you see now.

since it's still up, but with false references removed, I emailed him letting him know that I am posting on about a dozen BP forums so we can share the laugh.

yhs
