    My recollection is that it was a varnished wooden stocked bolt-action .22.
    Maybe having a thumbhole stock might not have conformed with RetardMe ‘policy’?

    There was something odd about the listing. It appeared as though it had been listed under a books section. I think the seller has done this with multiple items, possibly to avoid presenting an FAL number for a firearms auction?

    perhaps the 4x2 he made the stock out of wasn't properly treated....

    Unless things have changed recently one does not need a FAL number to sell firearms on Trademe...nor do you need one to answer questions on your listing but anyone asking questions must have one.

    Edit...just listed a firearm and did not need to put up FAL, just had to tick a box that said i would only sell to someone with a FAL

    Granted but this fella by listing it under books is circumnavigating that as no FAL is required to ask questions or bid on items listed as books
