It would be a lot less than $7500. Did you see the photo of Frank's very own gun up there? THAT ONE didn't cost $7500.
A $7500 Parker or Lefever is a pretty nice gun, and you would stand a chance of being able to sell it some day-there ain't enough copies of me to buy the limited amount of good Tobins out there, even at this late date.
Jim, they aren't really graceful-take a good, hard, look at that squared off bottom of the frame and think about carrying a heavy 12 like that for a day. I wear gloves with my 6lb, 4oz 16, even when it is warm out. Just about any other American design makes them look antiquated, which, I believe they are, but, I like them anyway.
I have the only one on my block. I might have the only 16 in my state, hell, for 5 states, but, nobody will be beating a path to my door to worship the thing.
Best,
Ted
