I imagine they will get that and then some

 

[OK Corgi Rancher]

Wow... I'd be happy with just the grips...

 

[Snattlerake]

Ha! It's got the idiot scratch!

Probably $100k+

 

[OHJEEZE]

I'd bid 500 bucks!

Those sights look wacky due to the height!

The winning bidder also has to pay a 21% premium and a $100 fee (not including shipping) from the shipping FFL. Even if I had that kind of cash, that's absurd. No thanks!

The sights do not look correct for that time period. I’m not positive sights like that even existed back then. Those tall monstrosities looks like Capone was using a suppressor
