If I had the cash to buy it, chances are I'd replace those deactivated guns with shootable ones!

Kinda cool, bet that thing is HEAVY.. but 42 is stupid fast..

1,000,000? We could raise that... We'd have to rename her the 'Bayoushooter' but we could do it. $2000 per member... 500 members...

Heck, that's only the equivalent of a half-dozen Pmags and a case of 5.56 right now....

It is not worth that unless it comes with all the original weapons and a full cache of ammo - and that is pushing it.

 

[MilOperator]

All weapons are deactivated. Well, that's a deal breaker for me.

If that was a Higgins built boat I'd take it. I ain't payin more than 900k for some damn yankee built boat!

The National WWII Museum is restoring one of these. You can watch them work on it by looking through a big glass window on the corner of Magazine and Andrew Higgins.
