I bought one second hand, '43 colt W/RR slide, post war bbl and magazine, Why? because I missed the Lottery and I wanted one. I believe they will become a nitch collectors item ( at my age I won't see the profit). I'll use it as a nice shooter and give my 1912,1916 and 1944 colts a rest. The gentleman I bought mine from Didn't make much profit if any. I think I paid $1200 shipped. I think the service grades were $1050 then the ffl fees to pick up. This will go along with my DCM Garand ($165) and carbine ( $21 I think)
