Re: All vaild points Big Norm, But I was just commenting on the photos
Patrick,
I may not be much help, but $2,500 for the pistol alone seems on the high side unless it is a more rare pistol. Most of the Artillery Models are the 1916, 1917, and 1918 dates. These unually run in the range of $1200 up to $1800 for the pistol. This should be one in 90% and up to approx. 97% for the price range.
One suggestion is to go to Simpsons Ltd. website and look at the price/condition of the ones he has for sale. This may help you make a better detemination as to what they are selling for with a certain date, sights, etc. I have seen full Artillery rigs for sale in the $2,500-3000 price range.
Good Luck and keep us posted on the pistol.
Marvin
