'Shady' is generous. Many many years ago in Chicago there was a gun shop I frequented that would 'fence' stolen guns, keep the Good Stuff and then turn-in the seller and remaining guns to the police. I picked up a very nice, if slightly suspect 1920 DWM. It's easy to imagine their progeny learned other skills and, like bacteria, spread out to join local men of 'enterprise' to infect our hobby. Apocryphal perhaps but forgers aren't limited by zip codes or imagination, but the upper mid-west for some reason-------. Cheers, Dick
