What's the expected price range on these?

I get the feeling if you have to ask, you don't want to know.

 

[J.R. Bob Dobbs]

I have a feeling that's no understatement.

I dont remember where I saw it, but IIRC it was in the $800-$900 range...Maybe a bit more..

 

[J.R. Bob Dobbs]

That's not terribly bad....GSR neighborhood at least.

Do you think that the price will spike as the novelty of the reincarnation of this popular pistol floods the market? I figure it's better to let some get out, have a few of the gun rags report on them and then see if the price drops...

The Detonics were pretty nice pistols...
But, with the competition they're facing NOW...
It's gonna be hard to make up for some seriously lost ground.
