I've spent the last couple months obsessively evaluating everything I can learn about 1911 pistols because I want one and will buy one once I've made up my mind. In the process I've noticed that some models have a lot of used ones available, and others have basically none. So while it initially seemed like a good thing that I could pick up a lightly used Kimber Eclipse for $800, it started to seem like an omen; there must be a reason why so many are selling, right? Any my most recent subject of research and lust, the Dan Wesson Commander Bobtail, evidently has nearly doubled in price over the past year, and there are no used ones that I can find anywhere, which tells me that this is not a gun you'll ever want to get rid of, and which also makes the relative abundance of used Kimbers seem a little less appealing.
But this isn't limited to 1911's. Have you also noticed this phenomenon and interpreted it the same way?
