[QUOTE="Gcan, post: 1591415, member: 102867"] I suspect it’s complicated. Custom guns are a sickness of sorts. Its kinda like collecting art. Personally, I enjoy building a High Power or custom gun with a smith. I enjoy getting it to shoot and then shooting it but I’m always thinking bout the next one. When you think about the cost of a real custom gun from a top tier smith ($6000 plus) and then the quality glass it must have ($4000) many of us can have $8000 to $12,000 or more in a real custom gun. Sadly, for most of us the number of those we can have and hold is limited by good sense and simple economics. It’s possible that custom gun owners sell custom guns to marshal funds for the next one. This may also explain why we are not selling factory guns worth hundreds when our next gun is thousands. Another factor to support this is the number of custom guns for sale absent glass or with an add on to include the glass. All of my glass has lived on more than one gun. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
