Default C-Bob and V-Bob

Heh guys. Could use some help determining if these are good (AND REAL) deals. How do you keep from getting burned? Would have shipped FFL to FFL.
Thanks!
Jim

There is a Guardian for sale. It's here by KC.

The price is right for the Vbob. There's a Cbob in 10mm on Seattleguns.net for $1500.

The Vbob said Trijicon sights but I thought they only came with Heinie Straight Eights?

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.

The Heinie sights have Trijicon inserts. Even though the rear sight has "HEINIE" engraved in it, the white Trijicon markings stand out more.

Please be careful with ArmsList. I was advertising a high end 1911 a while back on GB and got an email from someone who saw the same gun on ArmsList. I did not post it. Someone used my pics and created an ad as a scam. I notified the site and the person posting but it was never removed. I don't think they have the level of scam protection GB has so please play it safe. BTW ... that seller was listed as from North Carolina.

I wouldn't deal with anyone off ArmsList unless you can meet them and inspect the gun.. Dealers and sellers on the other auction sites have buyer ratings etc.
and are safe.. Some have been ripped off on Arnslist..

You're looking at the right guns..

I have an 09 CBOB and have no desire for a better gun ever.. If I had it to do over today I'd get the bobbed alloy frame .45.

I bought a stainless Valor on ARMSLIST. Got the gun but not in condition advertised. Felt ripped off. I thought it was just the seller but maybe it's symptomatic of the Forum. I'm going to steer clear. Thank you all for your input.

So, stepping up to a DW. Good move! If you want a square deal check this out.

I bought my Guardian from Jason good guy and quick shipping, and you won't beat these prices for new.

I have called and email Jason numerous times with no response.
