I sold a few standard c96s varying in condition in the past, from $750 to $4000. Of course, my best standard variation is still in my collection.

The collector friend talked to me earlier sent me an email. After hearing this gunbroker.com one has certain issues, he's scared... "Water is too deep. Will take a break until end of the year"... he does not like Bolo, and he does not like Flatside, he likes those milled panel full size.
I agree with your friend I don't like Bolo, 345K originally made there are still plenty of them around, and I don't like Red 9 only because here they get re-chambered 9x21 IMI so to me they lose all their collector value


Best,


Sergio
