    a way to steer clear of being taken

    i was surfing the web just now and i came across a site that warns consumers about fraudulent misdoings by people, its not too bad of a site, there was one fella in cali that we all know.so if anyone has ever been taken by junk part sellers this would probably be a good place to report them so others dont get taken

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I tried to set up an account ten different times and the site kept timing out. Nice!

    Very interesting web site phillydude. Thanks for posting -
    I think you may have a good idea about using it to report crooked sellers. The more the site is used, the more it will come up in searches. If nothing else it's a good way to vent when someone steals from you knowing you don't have much practical recourse.

    Below is a direct link to an extremely accurate report:

    Bill, good choice for a name "Broncowilly"

    Even though we all know he is doing it, posting without proof could be a problem. Libel, you know how sue happy people are these days. I wouldn't want to see him driving around in your Willys.

    Yeah, I know. George can't sue over the truth and nothing I have said or claimed is anything but the truth. I've told that some story on this site and back on the old CSPicon site as well. There is a fine line between slanderous and informative verbiage. Slander is based on lies, 1/2 truths and exaggerations. Information is based on truth and facts.

    On SWAT my nick name was Bronco and when I tried to secure it as my eBay user name back in the late 1990s it was taken so I tried Bronco Billy, Broncobilly, Broncobill and all were taken so I went with Broncowilly. It worked out because of my name William and my Willys MB jeep. Win win! He He He!!!
