When I first posted this I had missed that the barrel and slide did not match. There was another LGS HSC listed by another dealer in the 9K range. It sold but I do not know if the asking price was met.
I do not believe a mismatched example should be valued this high no matter how nice it looks. I do realize the LGS HSC is a very rare commodity but I would think real value in the 1-2K range IMHO.

About a year or two ago, we watched a crap HSc LGS sell on GunBroker for something like $4,400.  It had zero percent finish and was pitted like tank tracks.  It was down right horrible.  But evidently, supply and demand kicked in and the bidding went crazy.  I think you throw the book price out on these because the "gotta have" premium kicks in every time when they come up.  I watched a Mauser 1910/1914 sell at Rock Island Auction a week or two ago.   I think the price was $40,000 or $50,000.   Perhaps $60,000?  It went so crazy high, I was very surprised.  People must be looking at guns as investments, since the stock market seems to be iffy.

Just my take on these.

A knowledgeable collector might spring for a couple of grand on it as a placeholder like Burgess suggested.  For the uninformed collector, I guess the sky's the limit if he has deep pockets and hasn't read Burgess' quote, "aim small, mis small."  Anyway, that's the community we choose to be in.  As for me, I look forward to smiling and shaking my head when it sells ... and it will.

Jim,

Can you post a link to what sold at RIA for 40-60K. I would certainly hope it was not a 1910/14 pocket model?

Regards,
