I bought the railed model. It's going for nearly $1000 more already on


the secondary market. I didn't plan to shoot it and bought it for my


collection. My concern is that there is a warranty so maybe I should


put a few rounds through it to make sure all is well. On the other


hand, it would no longer be an unfired gun - outside of the factory. If


the prices don't move up significantly I will keep it forever so that's


less of an issue.




I guess I'll watch the prices during the warranty period and decide what


to do.




Harry would kill to be able to afford a gun like that.




It is easy to buy things when you do not pay your taxes or bills.








It's easy to buy things when you hire illegals to work the home handyman

jobs you get and pay them less than the going rate, and don't bother

with the various employment taxes and insurance reputable employers pay,

right, Bilious?



As for the firearm in question, I suppose it has appeal to someone who

collect ugly, oddball guns. It has no appeal to me. I know where there

are two brand new never fired presentation revolvers that were engraved

by Lynton McKenzie and have consecutive serial numbers. Each of them

might be worth what that ugly SIG pistol might fetch, and they are works

of art.


Why are you confusing firearms with art, Krause? Do you think that the silencer you are purchasing was designed by Jean-Michel Basquiat?
