IMHO, that's going to go for a lot more than their estimate... the 80 rounds of ammo alone, at about $80-100 a round is $6k- 8k in ammo.

Once you go DD... you never go back!

Forget all that!

Come to kick around what will be the highest bid auction in the World...hell the last four were as well! Waaaayyyyyy back in the woods of the last great State in the Union.

You just never know what you will come across in these events. I have seen $25,000 guns go for $3k. I also saw a man from Texas sit with his hand in the air until he walked home with a $920,000 Walker Colt and then do the exact same thing for the holster.

Cant remember the name of it, but theres a gun store on hiway 71, just west of Austin Texas, that had one for sale. Impressive. The bullet alone is as big as an entire 50. caliber cartridge.
