Is this a legit reply from 'Marlin'

[Chief Sapulpa]

They either don’t care or they can’t do anything about it. There are a couple each out there for both Browning and Henry and they have been active for several years.

At one time Henry had a warning on their website about them not selling direct, but the scam sites persist.

CZ too.

Definitely have to read carefully or they will fool you. If you are lucky your temper is the only loss.

CZ too.

Haven’t seen that one, but the Browning and Henry ones look 100% legit, if you don’t know how to recognize a scam.

I had a friend that should have known better send me a link to his cart to look over before he ordered a wicked wing from one of the Browning sites. I’d seen it before so I recognized it immediately or he would have sent them the money. The Henry ones are also very well done.

One clue you can almost always count on, they always have everything in stock, regardless of how hard it is to find elsewhere. I think that’s probably how they get folks. Somebody is desperate to own something and they show it as available, so the desperate get separated from their money. Same goes for hard to find Bourbon.

Gotta be careful out there.

Well, your first post was preceded by a title that questioned whether the message was legit.

My first thought is that if I question some detail, it must be too good to be true and just move on.

Any online store that won't take a credit card but will take Zelle is going to take your money and deliver nothing.

There are a lot of these online stores like the one that you mention. They offer reloading components, ammunition, firearms, and other items that are in demand and in short supply. They accept anything but forms of payment that allow you recourse when they don't deliver.
