My first gun is an old 1911 (original style - not the A1). I think the Ser# puts it as made in 1921. I was flipping thru a Modern Gun Values book the other day, and I see that gun is worth about 4 times what I paid for it.
It's my favorite (first gun you know), which I still love to shoot. However, I'm tempted to sell it to buy an XD-45. Maybe I'd still have some $ left over... to put down on a AR 180 B ... ? Just thinkin' here... I can't really afford any new guns without letting something go I already have.
One thing I don't like to do is get rid of a "not in the system" gun, and replace it with an "in the system" gun...
