Yes, but as noted those prices are 5 or 6 times the going rate of a pre sample. And they are about twice the going rate of a fully transferable.Originally Posted by bwhited

OMG...it hurts.

And I love this little gem of misinformation.

Florida's sales tax is 6% but some counties have an additional % over that.

Yup,
"Prestige Arms" always had overinflated prices.
The owner was a Physician of some type, well at least in the 1990's when I contacted him. He used to run ads in the back of Guns & Ammo magazine.
I sold him a RAMO M2 50 BMG with tripod for $6,000.....the going price in 1991 for an assembled RAMO 50. I used the money to buy 6 unassembled RAMO transferable sideplates for the M2, and the Manager of RAMO threw in a RAMO, actually ERMCO registered M2 carbine as a thank you to me.
I saw the Prestige Arms ad for the same RAMO I sold him, and he was asking $25,000 for it not two months later!
Like a friend of mine who still collects high end Class 3 stuff says, if we don't do a deal now, I (meaning him) will buy it from your estate when you are gone........he also bought from Curtis Earl's estate.......mostly parts -so there is a ring of truth to it.
The new in the box M16A2's are nice, but even the highest price paid for a Colt Thompson used by a legit Depression era Gangster went for less than 9% of what he is asking for his.....and that was a record for Rock Island Auctions.
I say good luck to him, and I hope he has a good Tax accountant/Lawyer.

Yea but it's "like" the gun they used in the St. Valentines Day Massacre. Maybe they found Al Capones actual finger prints somewhere near it. Thats how they justify the $0.99 million. For that price it better come with the violin case.

And the violin!
