Let me give another example.I'm also an avid firearms enthusiast,especially of the Gov't model 1911.I own a full custom Colt,and maybe the resale might be higher,but for the boys and girls who want to really go out and play Springfield would be a great choice.The Kirkham equivalent would be Les Baer or Wilsom Custom.The cops of L.A. SWAT who's lives depend on these choose Kimber.All great 1911 pattern semiautos,with different emphases,upper end prices very similar.I hope to be buried in my Cobra at 100 (and who knows,my tombstone may have a CSX#) It always just doesn't boil down to dollars,as "value" assumes many forms.IMHO
