First indicator: the rare powder, primers or bullets you're looking for are IN STOCK.

Second indicator: in stock items are pre pandemic prices.

Third indicator: accepting zelle, cash-app, etc.

Fourth Indicator: new website

If you run into any of these indicators, do your research on the company before buying. Ask this forum, ask Google, ask for references. Nobody is too smart to get scammed.

Simple: don't let DESPERATION override "COMMON SENSE".

Buying off squeaky website is like responding to email Nigerian Prince that needs help.

I`ve seen some web sites purporting to be on line gun sellers for specific brands ( Tikka, Savage, etc. ). If a concern won`t take a credit card, head the other way. Two old, always true adages apply. " If it seems to good to be true........" and " There`s a sucker born every minute. "

I was scammed by a fellow enthusiast on another hunting website. He had a fair number of posts. Talked to his FFL and he made communication to them about shipping. Agreed to pay half and then second half on arrival to my FFL. Had been communicating on a regular basis. Made 1/2 payment and never heard from him again. I will only do transactions face to face. Learned my lesson. Be skeptical of everyone and every website.

A short talk with a long 2x4 usually works
