CAUTION:

Please note that the message I posted has a number of "red flags" to this suspicious sole:

- Grammar and spelling are atrocious!
- No mention of any org by name.
- Return Email address is a freebie, not some .gov or .org that one might recognize as a legit organization.
- The phone number (IL) given is most likely unlisted. No Reverse Phonebook or Google search hits!

I posted it "just in case it was legit", but I'd treat it as suspicious. It came to me from a gun dealer in PA and his source was some online gun pub editor. Caveat emptor applies here!
