Bogus pre-17 ?

[hibbs]

There is currently a pre -M17 for sale that is obviously a parts made gun. The serial # on the frame has been changed, and the barrel and cyl. are not serial numbered. Is this a legal gun or one to stay away from? Even for parts.

The serial # on the frame has been changed,

Illegal.
There are folks who will tell you that it is unlikely to come to the attention of the feds, but unlikely is not Never.

Is this FrankenBogus revolver in some listing where we might get a look at it?
