[QUOTE="ParrotPirate, post: 4362068, member: 51087"] This is a question I will definitely bite on. A lot of the more collectible handguns out there were revolutionary in their day but obsolete now. I can think of a lot of wierd guns that suck to shoot, but it makes sense they are collectible like automags, or old derringers so I don’t count those as overrated. So with that in mind, and with the benefit of hindsight I do not understand why the Detonics guns are so sought after. They feel and look cheap and compared to the other gimmicked 1911s from their day they are 4x the price. In their day you couldn’t get a lot of 3inch 1911s but now they are a dime a dozen so it makes no sense to me that the Detonics Combat Master would be worth $2000 in todays market even as a collector’s piece.
