Thanks Allen, I am going to have to sell one of the kids to get that 1941 RS....

Why so cheap? No bids first time around, but now they are all selling?

Look at the start and stop times on the guns that got no bids. Obviously someone would have bid one penny minimum w/o a reserve if they had been given a chance. Apparently the seller listed the guns and didn't like the wording or the time of day they were ending or something and killed the listing about as soon as he published them. You can also schedule a listing to start at a future date and time. This may have been the case too and he decided to end the listing and adjust for a different start time. Later the guns were re-listed and folks are bidding on them. What gets me is the amount he got for that pristine US&S.

Maybe he didn't like the selling number and ended them early. We shall see on the next go around.

Well those pistols look really nice and are price reasonable, especially after I just saw the posting by mr. Johnson from the CMP stating that the rack grade 1911a1 will probably sell for $1,000 I don't know about you guys but that's ridiculous more more the USGI 1911A1 on Gunbroker look a lot work tractive the me.

He got a pretty penny for the first round of 1911s but this one is already over 5k. COLT 1911 38 .38 SUPER Prewar
