The gun volume is fixed. The only variable is the number of collectors.

I am always amazed by the volume and high price of shotguns and revolvers on the auction market. Interesting enough, when I was a the preview, I noticed there are lots of people circling around those American made C&R shotguns (Winchester? I don't know). Looks like the supply and demand still balance. Relatively fewer people are looking at European C&Rs (well, I did not stay there long, but that's the case in that hour).

[Edit] Just checked the ad, a little bit correction -- probably not shotgun, I guess that's lever rifle.
