At 67000 already this thing is a work of art. So how high will it go?

That's a nice Colt, but personally I'd rather have one of these.

The bid went up 640.00 since this morning when I first looked at it.
The price of a good shooter!

$70124.oo now . whew , no really whew ! It would look good along side the Thompson 1928 with full engraving and coin finish , including mag. That was only in the $190000.00 or so range . But then a nice used one is $45000.00 + in blue. at the gun show in Hampton Va. .

82,625.00 and 9 days to go!

I wondered if it would hit 6 figures. Might be some "ambush" bidders out there though.
