    If the first one was made pre-1898 then it'd be OK. The second one could land him in the booty house[;)]

    Check this one out (still trying to verify that it was on E-barf)

    BERLIN (Reuters) - German police seized a 10-ton armored personnel carrier that two men had put up for auction online, authorities said on Tuesday.



    "The men bought the tank from the Greek army and brought it to Germany. They were evidently looking to turn a profit," said a police spokesman in the state of Hesse.


    The 24.5-foot-long amphibious Russian BTR 60, found in the town of Raunheim, no longer had guns but was still fully armor-plated, which meant it contravened German law.


    The Greek and German owners had to breach the armor to render it useless for combat and then proceeded with the sale, fetching $11,000, but are being investigated for possibly violating weapons laws.


    The APC can be driven on German roads with a proper permit

    ditto, 1 out of 2 still spells legal bills.

    There is a 1902 Winchester barrel complete with bolt listed under winchester 22 on e-bay right now. That's just about the complete rifle, less the stock. It never fails to amaze me. There are always some receivers on there.

    I've noticed the practice but don't want to bring attention to it.

    Probably the picture. Most likely an incandescent light source and daylight film.
