I also noticed that. It's a kind of weird situation. Using Shansei .45ACP C96 copy as an example, I told people many times (in another forum) that this gun in this caliber was almost unknown in China but it was pumped up by Americans,,,, and most were newly assembled ones of 1980s .. they never showed up historical pictures nor memoirs, but no one listens, they still pay $5000, $6000 on those for looking only. Most of them are new collectors, they have money.
