TO MODERATOR:
Members: 
This is an excellent site.
BUT, beware of any ex-members referring you to another source
for the part you are seeking.
Especially if that individual will only honor Zelle or Venmo, Bitcoin-type payment. 95% chance it is a scam. This is usually found in the FS/WTT area of ASSRA site. (SILVERTIP is a retired Special Agent-DoJ) Moderator Ought Six will be informed. Caveat emptor on purchases/trades.

Just got two PM's each from user and these are his only two posts and of course each PM has a contact for the part I seek. I am familiar enough with this kind of scum scammer. So obvious they are.

Another solid lead is Tim . He’s been selling these parts for a while and really knows his stuff. You can reach him at timtimb3line@ gmail.com . The last time I came across his post, the  sharps carbine rear sight was still available
