Super Weird DM Chat Request Message.

I got a chat request message today. It said “ I will pay 3-4x retail for a working firearm. “ 8 month old account, and the only activity I can see is a post in r/montreal, from yesterday, asking if anybody wants to go to a gun range with them. I’m a member of r/Montreal, and have posted replies to people there asking about gun ranges. So…. Is this some moron who thinks that licensed gun owners sell guns illegally, or some Fed bait?

Hi Ian. What makes you so sure? Is it legal for cops to try to get people to commit crimes? I can send you my screen shot if you like. The dm request disappeared when I checked this morning. Their account is disappeared.

OP should offer to sell him an antique firearm and see if he bites.
