Me too

Colt Combat Commander, series 80. I think it was $500. One of the worst, if not the worst guns I have ever had. Pretty, but totally unreliable. Colt should have been ashamed to put their name on it.

Dan Wesson Valor at $1400 or so. Love it.

Mine would be my glock21sf with trijicon night sights $670 .

Winchester 101 3 barreled set, 410,28 and 20 gauge in a fitted case. Considering inflation, about 2500.00 in U.S. dollars.

A $949 plus tax handgun, that choked on the second shot fired through it.

Most expensive? A Sears-Roebuck double barrel 12 ga. $79.95 out of the Sears catalog in 1967 I guess it was. I was 15 years old and worked ten hour days, for $5.00 a day picking tomatoes to earn that money.

It was worth every dime.

An M1A with 2k of LC 7.62 and 15 Mags for $2,000. All mil. except the receiver and barrel. It was some guy's Y2k setup. 2nd favorite gun.

$79.95 for a shotgun--i guess everything else is inherit--luck you

But when someone is working at 50 cents an hour, that 160 hours needed to buy that shotgun is a lot of time and effort. For comparison - at federal minimum wage today - that's 1160 bucks. Even at really low wages of 3 bucks an hour, its nearly $500.

"Expensive" isn't always about dollar cost. It can be relative to wealth, or in this case, I imagine its contingent upon the effort expended to get it.

Les Baer Thunder Ranch Special .45ACP, NIB = $1500, this one ain't leav'in-
eventually to be passed along to daughter, then grand-daughter~!

Ten or eleven years ago, when I had my first custom Ruger single action revolver built, I was working 12-14hrs a day at a paltry $9/hr. It cost me in the neighborhood of $1500 and was worth every single penny. I've had three more built in the following years but that first is still my favorite.

I make a lot more money these days and about four years ago splurged on the biggest yet. That would be my Merkel model 280 28ga double to the tune of $4000. Also worth every penny.
