Seems like every gun I bought FTF from someone I didnt know turned out to have something wrong with it. If I ever by a gun from someone I dont know again, were going to go shoot it first.
That sounds like a winner. No FTF except at the local gun range. Shoot the firearm to test it and almost no chance of getting jacked by some scum sucking bottom dweller. Still is a chance of a hot gun unless the range has a way to run the serial no. through a stolen weapon data base.
