I have my screen brighter and can see them fairly well - but yes, many times, right click, save to desktop and then lighten and look at it larger on my paint.net program.

I am always amazed at the lack of description that folks use, jeez, just say what you see....

Those pictures are not all that great, but I have definitely seen worse. The good thing about bad photos is that nobody will place serious bids on the gun. I have taken chances on auctions like that, and have snagged some guns that just blew me away once I had received them and could see what they really looked like.

The Nambu T94 in the picture is one of those "gambles". It was relisted over and over again, together with horrible pictures that made it look like it was covered with surface rust. Bad lighting, wrong camera settings, I sure don't know how the guy managed to take such awful pictures. I contacted the seller, made a shameless offer and got it, and when I opened the box I found that the gun was near mint and even had a matching magazine. That's not to say that it always works, but it's pretty safe as long as you bid as per "worst case scenario".
