Very little about this rifle is legit in my opinion. It is a complete and obvious POS. The bidders are unbelievably ignorant. I feel sad for them. I tried to sell a legit A4 and didn't get bids that high. Morons.

Blatant Fraud of an 1903A4
I completely agree with everyone else on this really bad fraud.
While the seller may not know what they are selling, and its the responsibility of the buyer to know what they are buying its still a fraudulent gun.
I have advised Gunbroker.com that this gun is a fraud. I have asked them to make a note, and if other auctions this seller holds receives notice from the public about frauds, then they will know what kind of seller they are dealing with! (And the seller is listed as an FFL )
I feel a little like a busy-body for butting in at Gunbroker.com, and I doubt it will help, but I have been defrauded on Gunbroker.com, not that this bad, but still defrauded. Just trying to help I suppose.

The buyer's name won't be revealed until the he/she leaves feedback on the item. (if they even do that) Doesn't matter, item says sold as is with no returns and no inspection period. Buyer is SOL.

Illegal to possess with the altered serial number.

Well there is an avenue if they have altered the serial and its illegal to own then they have committed a wrong by selling an altered weapon therefore perhaps the Police should get involved and we will see how the "No return policy " works for the seller in a court of law??

Well, the fellas with the bulges in the cheap suits have shown no interest in pursuing legal action with regard to USGI milsurps, unless the gun in question is determined to be a "crime gun", or the US Attorney needs an easy case to prove against someone he's trying to put away. They know that the US military sometimes restamped serial numbers when they were partially or completely removed during refinishing. Of course, those of us on this forum know enough to recognize the work of a "humper", but juries are easily put to sleep by little details.

In all reality the buyer is going to eat the cost and at some point this rifle will be sold to another sucker. As for slander, no it's just not something we pursue in our culture except in very rare circumstances. The seller is a scumbag or a moron either way... Buyer beware!!
Not all lawyers are blood suckers...many provide good service for a fair price.
