[QUOTE="GorillaG, post: 4285600, member: 49083"] It's funny how some guns go up dramatically in price over the years for no logical reason. Many of these "Saturday night special" guns that used to go as cheap as 20-30 bucks now can bring north of 200.00. .22 rifles I used to pick up for 40 bucks often go over 200.00 also. And some of these military surplus guns shoot up in price the minute the initial import flood subsides. Also the cheap, fake machine guns like the Tec-22's and Ten 9's are going in the hundreds, far more than they cost new and they're basically junk. The funny thing is you can still find remarkable vintage quality big name guns for bargain prices if you're very patient and thorough in searching. I have some Colt and S&W's I paid close to the going rate for but far more, that you would be amazed at how low they were priced. Often at auctions where I was the only bidder or one of only two.
