Gunsmithing Lorenzo at Deadly Precision Gunsmithing

Under the circumstances, I see no problem with Rasta's suggestion that an established third party/FFL handle the final transaction. I'd want to fully inspect what was in the box before signing for it to make sure it contained what it is supposed to. Whatever fees are associated seem infinitesimal to settle a problem. That is, infinitesimal unless your hiding something. At this point it doesn't matter how good the gun is. Your disgusted every time you look at it.
