The prices listed above represent what the items SOLD for...not asking, SOLD....

A WW2 Singer 1911 would go for $40,000.00 now....a standard WW2 Remington would be at least $2000.00

A Doug Turnbell RESTORATION of a US Army Colt 1911 vintage WW1 is $3250....

And here is another example of how HOT Antique and Collectable guns are...http://67.155.195.3:8050/FMPro?-db=GMA_Inventory.fp5&-format=inv_detail.html&-lay=web&-RecID=43222&-Find

This gun SOLD for $53,000.00 and change....BTW...I saw the Sharps at the Beinfield Gun Show in January...along with OP Slacker...

There were four English made Percussion Target Rifles in the AU sale...2 are on their way to the UK and 2 are on their way to the USA... Ironically there is another Rigby Match rifle in much poorer condition up for Auction in NZ..however the NZ one belonged to Lord Elcho, of the famous Elcho Shooting Matches held in the UK... the estimate is 10K NZ to 17K NZ.
