If it doesn't fit the topic in any of the other forums, and is firearm-related, put it here!

Ruger GP100 at 980.00 with almost 3 days left to go!! Wow. Wonder if the madness will ever end. Suddenly I have a bunch of highly prized top dollar firearm collectables :think:

When I bought them they were pretty basic run of the mill guns ...

Was shooting my 3"GP yesterday .. maybe I should stop and just build a nice display case for it!! :mrgreen:

Haha, that is wild. I have bumped into a few people asking $800 for gen 3 Glock 17s as of late. I'm not sure if they are collectible or if dollars just arent what they used to be.

18 months ago you could built ARs from new parts cheaper (tax/transfer/shipping included) than what My Hi-point carbine is going for.

Confused on whether it's funny or not.

You might as well own a high end gun.
I am sure we all already own some high end ammo.

I love it when people quote gunbroker prices as the value of their guns. Sorry but post a gun on a AZ gun board at gunbroker prices and watch it sit. Still plenty of good deals on guns out there and plenty of dealers selling guns at regular prices. Ammo, not so much.

There are scores of Glock 17s and even 19s ranging from $459-$550, yet the things are fetching ridiculous prices still. I don’t understand it, though I don’t understand many things in this world.
