    Scam.

    1. If you do a search for the narrative on their Class 3 listings, you get several hits to identical scam sites.

    2. They not only have some rugers in stock which haven't been in production for years, but they're also on sale.

    3. They take crypto.

    4. Their store's name is Taurus "Firearms Gun Shop" which sounds like it was written by someone who speaks English as a second language.

    4. Taurus Bull is all wrong in logo.
    5. Much of site looks cut from other sites. Just look at the payment logos.
    6. No physical address information, or way to contact other than email.

    I didn't see where they took crypto. That's a dead giveaway.

    I found a Remington scam site last year, looking for a cheap 870. Looked legit as hell. Then, I saw they had ONG 870's listed as in stock for a ridiculous price.

    These type of websites are popping up everywhere lately. I get calls and emails asking if I will accept transfers from them. kimberarmsusa.com is another one. I feel sorry for those folks who will get taken by crooks like these.

    John that looks sketchy as hell....

    My exact same thoughts!!!!!!

    A best practice can be to go to either gun.deals.com or Wikiarms.com and use the search function there to find reputable online vendors (with the exception of Guns.com and LockedandLoaded which coincidentally almost always appear either as the lowest option or, as the only option for out of stock)
