I agree that you need to be careful when buying used guns even here but I find most people are quite up front with issues. It just opens up a whole new set of options for OP. Without being AV'd you either take your chances on something in a used market (like OP is looking at Kijiji) where you don't have trader ratings and you really have no idea what that person's "airsoft aptitude" is or you have to go brand new from one of the various retail options.
