Bill, this is true. However, the KGP 690 is an 8mm blank-firing pistol. Probably fewer of these made than the KGP 68 or 68A were made. NIB, the latter are worth around $400-450, if the box is good and includes a nice manual, loading tool, extra mag, and Erma stick-pin. What the 690 is worth, well, that depends on the collector's niche it belongs in, demand, etc.; but I'd say it's at least scarce.

For a pic, see here: http://www.collectorfirearms.org/web...ms/li-1078.htm I think the asking price may be over-reaching a bit, but maybe not, since one of these would definitely be hard to come by.
