:help:Am I the only one that gets confused when I see a firearm that is listed as new? Kings condition rating system has been around for years and is thought to be a lynch pin for rating a firearms condition. I always think of a vehicle, it can only be NEW once and that is when it is sold (titled). originally.
Any thoughts?
Kings Condition Rating System:
NEW: A gun given a grade of "new" looks just as it did when it left the factory and has never been sold at a retail store.
PERFECT: A “perfect” gun is literally as good as new, although it may have been sold in a retail store.
EXCELLENT: An “excellent” rating means the gun appears to be in perfect condition but may have had minor use.
VERY GOOD: A “very good” firearm is perfect mechanically but may have minor cosmetic blemishes.
GOOD: A rating of “good” indicates that the gun is in proper working condition but may show signs of wear.
FAIR: A “fair” firearm may or may not be in safe working order. It has not been test fired, only visually inspected. It may need repair or maintenance. SOLD AS IS, NO REFUNDS!
UNRATED: Unrated condition means this firearm has not been test fired, it may function perfectly or it may be in need of repair. Cosmetically it may be in very good to fair condition. You will need to look at the pictures and ask questions. SOLD AS IS, NO REFUNDS!
POOR: Our definition is: medium to heavy rust and pitting, wood badly scratched or gouged, may be cracked or broken. May not be in working order, may need repair. SOLD AS IS, NO REFUNDS!
PARTS OR REPAIR: Not in working order. These are sold for parts or repair, may not be repairable, may be missing parts or have broken parts. SOLD AS IS, NO REFUNDS!:help:
