Be sure to send in your lottery style application to buy from the Government a used 1911 military pistol. And.. you have to send in that application between a September and an October date or it doesn't count. If you are a lucky winner you can buy one of three degrees of used pistols. The most used is $850.
Now if the US would just bring back boat loads of Korean war used M1's, 1911's , etc. Then we might have something to get excited about....and affordable.
