    I still have my WTB add up for a Browning BT-100 up and a new member discoo IM'd me and said he has one for sale, here is the email he sent me,

    The forever Popular BT-100 in a SS with a 34" factory ported barrel is a winning choice among champion Trapshooters, with three flush Invector plus chokes. Serial Nb. is 04091 NVJ99 LOP is 14 1/4 to 15" adjustable. The Barrel & Receiver are 98% with a few handling marks on the forend and stock. Grade II wood With Monticarlo thumbhole stock.I’m asking $1800 shipped for it.

    He just copied and pasted it into the email (it is from a sale on******* forum) from 2015 exact pics and wording, and the same serial #.

    So beware!

    Thanks,

    Mod Edit: The name was enough, I deleted the email address and the name of another site.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    I had him send me pic via text. The number was 202-813-0498. That is a DC area code, he said he was in Mesa, AZ.

    I had a deal on a 90T HPAR from a guy in Minnesota. It turned out that the guy with the name used was an old guy that had his wits like Biden so he was only the drop box. As I found out from the local PD that he was receiving checks and cashing them for some young gal that gave him a divorce story and ex was taking all the money if the checks came to her. Nobody owned the gun they were selling. In research I found the gun on the other site back in 2018 same pictures. I ended up getting my check back from the the old guy as the PD explained to him what was happening. I GOT LUCKY.

    He also tried scamming me on a 410 superposed. Sent photos hopped pictures and could not explain varying serial numbers. He should be eliminated from this site. Thanks
