My guess is someone will bid around $25,000.00 for it after the stuff I saw at the gun show this weekend.

It's nice looking.It will bring premium dollars.John M. Browning would be proud of it.What are the going to do with the proceeds from the bidding?

Well Redhawk,
I do believe that the proceeds from the gun go to no other than the company itself!!!

The more and more i think about it, the more and more money I think it will take in. Holding a auction can be relativly cheap if you own the building and have lots of things selling. But the Browning auction would be very expensive to run seeming that they probebly would not own the place they are selling the gun and also that they are only selling one item. This one item will go to top notch bidders who will be treated very respectivly. No doubt it will cost Browning a great deal to hold this auction and unless they are just doing it purly out of collectors sake. I think they hope to take in a great deal of money for this gun!!!
