Makes me glad I have the Sportsman pieces that I do.
I may not be able to afford any more.
Heck I might have to drop my standards a little and start buying Smiths, or Colts!!

    That's nutty. Passed on a lnib Sportsman about three years ago that was for sale for $350. Thought it was too much.

    Not quite!!
    Should have been buying every one I could find a few years ago, when I was making good money, and you could buy them for $ 100!!

    Isn't that the truth!! Every gun show used to have a bunch of them!! It had to be something quite special for it to hit $200.00 or more!!! $75-$125.00 was more like it!! I started collecting them because I liked the looks and they were way more affordable than Colts!! It looks like the return over the last 10 years may be better too!!
