Welcome to the Lugerforum You need to study this forum for a long time to become familiar with what to look for. I suggest you do an overall forum search for the word "fake" and "faked" and "boosted" to examine threads that point out some of the issue to watch for.
You can also put photos of your prospective purchases here on the forum and get a consensus from the most knowledgeable collectors in the world before you buy. Any seller that won't provide or allow photos or an adequate inspection period is a seller to stay away from.
Where are you from in Maryland? No matter where it is, it isn't that far from me.
