I believe that these two artilleries are currently being offered for sale by a gun shop in Gettysburg PA. I first caught on to them on Gunbroker.com with no photos and a starting price of $.99 and a buy it now of $5000 each. Out of curiosity I diverted from a trip to Allentown some months ago to look at them and asked at that time if there was any room in the price. I think that I was told that bottum dollar was $4800 or something like that. I thanked the nice person there and went on my way.
I did not take the pistols down but they did look good. As Tom says, the red nine is a very pleasing variation indicating company armorer work. I would place that pistol at a high of $3000 because of the grips but keep in mind that there are few who would pay that premium for the unique grips. The other artillery is perhaps $2000+ if you are patient. The P08 with ivory grips is an $800 pistol.
