Colt R80 Moniter
Colt only made 125 of these between 1931 and 1940. The FBI purchased approximately 90 of them. I would imagine that means a few have been held onto and are in storage. The rest were probably crushed and melted down. Ugh. The Federal Government. Incidentally for anyone wanting one of these prices are now running between $100,000 -$150,000. And that's just an estimate. They are extremly well made. Excellent quality. One of these was used by Frank Hamer when he ambushed Bonnie & Clyde. --Jcordell (talk) 14:58, 7 January 2013 (EST)
