I have always had an itch for a late NM 1903 with an SA/SPG. Maybe I can afford one now.

However, really nice rifles usually sell well at auction. I think the market for average condition collectible firearms has really taken a hit. I suspect the trend will continue as the current group of collectors age and anti-firearm sentiment increases. I am debating selling my collection before the market gets worse or hanging on to it and letting whoever eventually inherits it deal with it.
