I didn't know anything about that gun when I bought it and no one I knew had any experience with them. Today I was in a Pawn shop in Valdosta talking to the gun guru there, talking about several rifles, and asked him about the gun, he told me they won't even take them in as a trade and have several in the back that they won't even put on the shelf. Wish I had known this way back, as I have had several people shoot the gun and ask to buy it. I will not sell it to someone now that I know the deal, I wouldn't knowingly sell a gun that has the reputation I now know a 742 has to a friend of mine.
There is nothing wrong with selling it to someone since you know it works. The problem is when you know it has a problem and sell it to offload the problem on to someone else.
Not every specimen of something with a bad reputation is a lemon.
