Uh-oh, I recognize the seller from a year or so ago. He'd posted pics that were sexy, cameo shots but showed practically nothing of the condition. Well, except perhaps a big pit on the side plate (if anyone remembers my post about it from back then...). His description said no rust or pitting, but when I asked for a better pic of that area, all I got was a hard time. I think it may have been Michael Zelaney who outed the guy as a "flipper"--found one of his ridiculously priced guns for sale that had been listed earlier by someone else, for a slightly less ridiculous price. I had not noticed any further offerings by "mdarksereph" for about a year, now there's this one.
