Price Signalling

CMP says $1,000 for a beater frankengun.

Everyone adds $1,000 to their price for a milsurp M1911A1 on Gunbroker!

No shit.  Three auctions I was watching with mint Remington-Rand made guns ended and went from $1,500 buy-it-now to $2,500 with a $2,000 starting bid.

Wow.

Well, every company that makes a 1911, take notice!

Look at the demand for parkerized, arched mainspring, short trigger, small sighted guns with lanyard rings!

Not one of you make one any more.

    1. In the wrong color though. They're very close otherwise.
