    No reason to get mad! You probably didn't see the several other scams from brand new members on this site over the past few months. All of the scams started with someone from out of state, posting something for sale within the first hour of being a member. They also had some kind of shady deal they wanted to do in order to get payment for the gun. Your post appeared to be one of those other scams to me. Sorry if you took my post as being disrespectful, but that was not my intentions. I just didn't want someone to fall victim to a scam for that much money. Just a tip for next time, maybe you should give a little background story about yourself and how you came upon this website. That way everyone will understand why you are posting something for sale within the first hour of being a member. I'm glad you were successful on your sale. AZhunter05, sorry I mixed up my screen names between here and Iowawhitetail. I was directing my response about the weather etc. to Iowaborn on this forum and his handle on iowawhitetail is AZHunter. I get putting more specifics about how I came to this forum but when I explained how I wanted to do the transfer and did fill out my profile I figured that would at least calm most of the "scam" posts. What I really didn't like is that someone claimed they sent money and didn't receive the gun and I never met them OR posted it to even have that happen. I know how the internet scammers work (at least I hope so) and anyone that PM'd me about a possible deal could sort out very quickly by how I was responding and how I wanted to do the deal that it wasn't as fishy as the Nigerian scam crap. I take a risk to sending a rifle all the way out to AZ. That's why I explained how I wanted to go through the FFL with them holding it until payment on my end cleared. That's a small burden on the FFL and they stated that the person sending the gun usually gets money FIRST but I told them you can't expect a person in AZ to send that much money on a maybe thing. I hope the FFL understands when my rifle ships away for AZ today and I pray I don't have to file a claim with the USPS for insurance.

    AZHunter I'll give ya a quick weather report for commission if your thinking about coming back to Iowa, it's wet and the morels are about done in NE Iowa. If you ever list something for sale on the Iowa forums ill speak up for you like you did for me, but then again you'll probably be good being a Iowa born native and with your handle. If you need a place to crash in Iowa and I can help you out let me know. I'm sure you still have ties being your on the Iowa forum it's hard to totally break ties to "home".

    SJVCON That's exactly what I planned on and am doing. Only risk is the shipper destroying it or having to pay to ship it back if the person doesn't send the $$ to the seller. The gun is sold pending a sucessful transaction. Hope my first gun sale to AZ is a good one. Thanks for those who didn't bash the listing when I first posted it and the buyer who is making the deal.

    Your full of it. I've never posted this for sale. Azhunter on iowawhitetail.com said people on this forum might be interested and your closer to Texas then me which is why I figured there would be hog hunters. I'm not a longtime member because first I didn't know about the site and second I'm in Iowa, whitetail country. Like I said I can take other pictures and things of that nature to show its legit but you just continue to say false things. I'm not asking to send a darn money order out of the country. The way we make sure a deal goes smoothly through an FFL is I send the rifle to your FFL and they hold it until payment is cleared, then your FFL completes the transfer to your possession. If the money doesn't clear then the rifle come back. Pretty safe and for the most part scam free.

    What should I have charged you guys more? This IS out of Iowa based on your guys's responses the markets must be way different. It will be going from one FFL to another so not sure how it will be a scam. I've never sold gun long distances but I suppose someone will have to take a risk. Do you want different angled pictures or what do I need to do to show it's not a scam? Jack the price up more to justify that it's legit? Just figured an area closer the hogs might have more of a demand for it.

    I have this listed and another person mentioned you folks around hog country might want to grab a rifle like this up. It is an Alexander Arms .50 BEOWULF upper with a Lauer Custom Weaponry (LMT brand) lower. Has Vortex strikefire sight and Magpul backup sights, VLTR hangaurd, 1 factory mag and 4 modified P-Mags, comes with a bore snake. Very accurate up to 200 yards and perfect for smashing some hogs. I'm glad we don't have a bunch in Iowa to shoot because of the destruction they cause, but if we did I know what this rifle would be doing on my days off. At this time I don't want to deal with shipping ammo and have a person locally that is interested in buying it. So if you want to purchase the gun I'll be sending what you see minus any ammo. Buyer will cover shipping and any transfer fees to FFL. Gun will be coming out of Iowa, zipcode 52172. Asking $1,900 +shipping costs/transfer fees You can message me on here or send an e-mail to tedbendataxidermy AT hotmail.com Rifle is also listed on other sites so first person to post payment gets the rig. Thanks.
