Title: It's Back!
Post by: Warbird on March 26, 2018, 07:20:49 PM
The ruined Low Grip Screw HSc highlighted in Adler's Sticky is back on the market at R.I.A.  Only $4,500 to $6,500 +18.5% ($1,000) Buyer's Premium. >:(  Bad news just keeps coming back!

I have been watching that.  That poor example should be put out of its misery.  I would buy it for the grips, but they look somewhat odd as well.   Plus I would not pay the starting bid.

I couldn't find it.  I did a search on the HSc and didn't bring up any LGS model.

Looks like it has been taken down.  I wonder why. ;)

I have a call in.   I will try to get you an answer as to why it was pulled.

I suspect it was because the serial number was changed.  But we'll see if you can find out for sure.

That is my first take on the situation.  No return call yet.  I will keep posted what the auction company says about this gun.  still no word for the auction company

The auction house said they had received two calls on this example.  After those calls they decided to pull the pistol and another example by the owner from the sale.
