Looks like an ANIB Blackhawk. 1997 is older, probably bought new and stuck in a safe. Nice, but certainly an "optimistic" price. The auction offers an option to submit an offer, if you want.

Looked at a few more of his listings. There appears to be quite a bit of optimistic pricing with that seller.

Never heard of a "45 LC Colt". Perhaps one of a kind hence the hefty price....

So He's asking roughly double $$. That's not such a rare thing on GunBroker. Sometimes I think/know some of these sellers throw an outrageous price on a firearm, just to see if they can get it. In the current market, it may take a year or two, but then it may seem like a deal! I feel He missed out on some of his wording of the ad. Because its used, I suppose the N.O.S. moniker couldn't be used, but "rare" could have been added. !997? Yea so, "vintage" could command a premium. If you think this guys out of the ball park check out GB for ammo prices. crash86 (+1)

Yes in a round about way, I was mocking also, Like the term Vintage.

You could get away with this a year, year and a half ago when things were scarcer in general. He probably would've had a buyer then. Not anymore; there are options now.

That seller posts a lot for sale and it’s all way overpriced. I haven’t run a search on what they’ve actually sold.
