Arthur Fliegenheimer Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Knob, More to the point, what does the seller want for it? In the past year, run of the mill 21A's, 1921AC's, 28 Navy's, and 1927 Colt's have sold for $19K to $28K, depending on the circumstances, actual condition, accesories, history of gun, etc. One person's 90% is another person's 96%, and another's 80%.
