You what the definition of "like new in box" is? A gun that I brand new in the box. Never fired since leaving The factory. There is nothing like new except a new one. That is like saying they are like a virgin but not. I cleaned it really good it is born again new in box.
My opinion "LNIB" indicates low round count and in excellent condition. You buy something try it out and find its not for you so you want to sell it and try something different. It's like new minus a few rounds put down the barrel. As far as the virgin thing depending on how well the first time went she may still feel like one. Haha
