Yeah, $2k or higher wouldn't surprise me. Gunbroker might give an estimate based on items with actual bids
I agree. Especially in a gun store. The new buyers are going to the stores paying top dollar. They don't shop online (or get confused by it, with arranging the shipment to an FFL, etc).$2000-$2500 depending on condition. It's a seller's market right now.
I was curious the other day and looked on GB. A couple were $2,500. Looked like same seller. Don’t know if they sold for that though.
Looks like typical Gunbroker shenanigans. The listings are "selling" for $1800 to $2500, then getting relisted for the same price.
Maybe seller has multiple units?
I sold one for 3K and another to a friend for 2K. Current value is $2000-2500.
They made way more than 300 (think in the thousands) but it's hard to figure out just how many because they shared the serial number block with the HBPW model ad Colt isn't giving out any information.
Anyone know the quantity produced? I heard 300.
It's the only rifle Colt ever made and sold to the public with a US property mark. The Retro Vietnam thing had their name on it but they didn't make it. The SOCOM has a 100% (except for the extended flash hider) USGI upper taken right off the government supply assembly line. It's as close as Joe Public is going to get to the real thing without enlisting. To collectors, that demands a premium. The HBPW was made in far fewer numbers but it doesn't have the property mark so it's less sought after.
