    Fee adds shut down air rifle sales so naturally the scammers had to move on and unfortunately they have ,over on to the main sales sites for rifles. Spotting them is not easy either for gun star or buyers I’m glad you spotted this one well done. I suppose the only way to take these prat’s is for genuine sellers to keep an eye on sale sites which would be a pain in the back side.

    I found someone selling my Steyr. Took the pictures off this site. I got that one closed down. I myself have actually been the victim of one for a Steyr about 13 years ago. £700 quid down the toilet and I talked to the guy for well over an hour on the phone beforehand. Anyway, buyer beware as they say.
