Few years after I retired I had an occasion to go back to NY and my friends gunshop. Asked if he had any model 10's for sale. Tells the other guy to get the box under the counter. Must have had 30 old model 10's in that box. Took me 45 minutes to find the one that would be mine. $100 with a copy of my buddies FFL. Matter of fact it got home faster than I did. 30 someodd years later I still have her. Picked up a model 13 for $300 and my Model 14 for the same amount. Different gun shows and different dealers. Even my 1943 Ithaca cost me nothing. I had a Saur 38H in 32 auto so we did the deed. Haven't done another deal like that. Frank

Threads like this make me feel fortunate to have acquired what I did, when I did … but also lament what I missed.

After some ciphering, I figure I have maybe 575-600 in this Royal Hong Kong Police m10 from early 80s, don't regret cause I wanted it....but I don't think I'd give that much for a run-of-the-mill old cop gun m10.....at least not yet.....

Looks like our shooting hobby will only be for the extremely wealthy in about 5 years. By then a 10/22 will be going for $3,000 and internet gun runners on their You Tube videos will be saying how great of a deal it is. They would all love it to be that way.

I bought both my Model 67 no dash (shown on the left) and my Model 10-6
(shown 3rd from left) (2nd is my 2" model 10) together at the same time.
Paid $550 for both. ($275 each). That was February 6, 2006.

15 years before that, they were $100 guns and a living wage was $9 an hour. Gas was .80 a gallon too.
Prices today are driven by demand just like it was since forever. The Obama years drove demand and prices through the roof.
Diesel was $4+ a gallon 10 years ago.
It’s all relative.
