This is the actual ad, no picture, and no real description of any value. Good luck with the sale!

Is this like a Hobie Cat? What's a "biggie"?

I'm amazed they spelled "RC" correctly.

Looking for a hobbie grade rc car ,biggie,or truck it needs to come with everything ready to run. I have to trade a 12 ga single shot home defence shot gun I can also throw in a pellet gun and a scope

Me too. Missed it on "defence", though. Moreover:
I have to trade a 12 ga single shot home defence shot gun
"Single shot" and "home defense" don't belong in the same sentence, unless separated by "is not suitable for". If it's all ya got, better than a sharp stick, but becomes nothing more than a sophisticated club if you miss or have multiple assailants..........

Anyone else think this is a weird combination of weapon parts? Is he trying to paddle bits of gun that were used for nefarious purposes together with his RC car?

Or are we supposed to read "Airsoft weapons"? :lol:
