Savage Thompson On Subguns


Recommended Posts

Over 20k for a Savage!!! Wow, I can't believe those went so high. When I bought my a-1, I could have gotten the earlier 1928 for 15K, which was about a year ago.

Asking price is one thing, selling at the asking price is another.

 

There was an MP-40 with an asking price of $27,000 a several months ago on Subguns. I believe the ad expired without a sale.

 

And just what percentage of wear does a "great" gun have? Mere puffery, IMHO.

Toooooooooooooooo MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCHHHHH.... but it is a first generation Savage... made on Colt machinery...maybe that is what the seller was hoping to cash in on... http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/wink.gif

He was asking $20,500. Remember he was selling two L- drums in the deal also.

 

Let's assume he accepted $20k even. Figure about $1100 per drum. That means the gun sold for $17,800. That's a very realistic price for a nice Savage M1928 TSMG.

Gun went for asking price in 30 minutes. I was in contact with seller as I have a very similar gun. I had hoped he could provide me with some history. He couldn't, but he did give me a few leads.
