For me, it's an heirloom.
Wife placed got in queue with Harrison to coincide with finishing her graduate degree. I became jealous, made and order to coincide with mine when I went back. It's about having something exactly as we want. Pursuit of an ideal. But there's no way for us to justify it as a tool. I did that once, coincidentally with SACS about 10 years ago. Had problems after about 3k rounds. The safety failed. Then the frame failed. They repaired it, but now it's a beater. I get the economics of it. Fewer qualified people, labor intensive, and a large part of the rising cost is because certain names become so sought the price needs to go up, for no other reason than to reduce demand. That being said, I wouldn't spend that much money on a working pistol again.
