I'm waiting for people to realize that they need the cash more than they need the gun they just bought.

This has all the apperance of a bubble. When it pops guns will be cheap, just like they were after WW II.

I passed up a Colt Python for $150 a few months ago. Never fired and in the box. The guy needed cash, but I have never found the Python to be to my likeing.

Its already burst, prices on just about everything are way down. Except K98's which just surged about 100%. For example last year a Colt 6920 would have set you back at least $1,800, now their down to $1,200-$1,300.

Ammo is currently whats crashing. Quality US made brass cased 5.56 is down to about .36 cents a round from .55 last year. Its still dropping like a rock.

You could have flipped the Python and purchased pretty much any other production handgun in the world that is to your liking without bringing any additional cash. Python is considered by many to be the finest production revolver EVER made.
