Funny how that 'suddenly' restarted...

I got one in the lottery. Nice pistols, refinished, but not worth what they charge for it, unless you want the history.

Brand new 1911's are available for half that. Badly overpriced, especially if they aren't in perfect condition.

Well, it's like B said. The value is original US issue history. I love that but this was a little rich for my blood.

Oh, I get it. I have a few relics myself. But with these purchases you don't get any history for the individual weapon. These could have been sitting in a holster on the hip of a sentry or MP in Hoboken their entire service history. You can only imagine what its history was. You never know it.
