Huff that paint out of a bag, and the price might make sense.

gunborker has protocols for dealers/sellers to credit you the fees etc,

takes about 30 days, they have revamped the system,

in a lot of cases, the buyer's account is closed

in this auction, looks like 2 guys went head to head from about the $15K mark till the end,

MMB are good people, I've met Mary, she sets up sometimes at NGS in NOVA,
I've done some transfers with hier

, and the buyer is a dealer,
I would doubt it was a shill but we will likely never know

Even a casual glance at that auction shows that it was a dick measuring contest.

2 guys (or gals) likely drinking and bidding,

the 15 minute rule gives them time get up and go get another Scotch before bidding again

WOW! Said it was Stainless and Gold. Jeez, I didn't think Stainless Steel was worth that much!

Thanks for the post. Gun humor is always appreciated.

Hi, me and my family are longtime from New Orleans, it would have at least some chrome or silver engraving on it.

Also, there needs to be gold spelling out the pimps name.

thx.

So long as it comes with an official certificate of authenticity, I don’t see an issue.
