This would be neat, but I don't have the jack for it.

Yeah,
The one for Texas is already past $1700. I couldn't have one as a collector. I would reduce the value by shooting the heck out of it.

if it stays under $2k it'll be a good steal for a collector. I'm more inclined to shoot my guns....and I mean hundreds of rounds at a time.....that one probably wouldn't be worth that $2k for long if I owned it. who knows though....i might could resist the temptation......

I enjoy shooting to much to own a collector item but it is a great looking firearm

My guess is that it would not be worth all that much as a collector item...even if held a few years and was unfired

Could be, but I for one am glad that US gun makers continue to support venues such as this. Oh, and like the rest.. I am shooter not a collector.
