"early 50's K-22 sight adjustment tool" costs $100?
Reminds me of "A fool and his money are soon parted".
It also reminds me of the sign outside the antique store:
We buy junk...and sell antiques.

Re: $100 Screwdrivers?
Speaking of government lingo, quick - what's a PFD?
It's a Personal Flotation Device, formerly known as a life preserver.
***************************************************************************************
Oh, here's another way to drive up the price of a tool:
Simply put the prefix "MARINE" in front of it.
If you're a boater, just like the rest of life, "You have to pay to play".

Re: $100 Screwdrivers?
The 2 happiest day in a boat owner's life are:
1. The day he buys it.
2. The day he sells it.
********************************************************************
At our summer place we used to have a knotty pine sign that read:
A boat
is a hole in the water
Surrounded by wood
Into which one pours money.

Re: $100 Screwdrivers?
Turn your air conditioner to 65 degrees, Get a big fan and put in front of your shower, turn on the cold water with the door open and the fan blowing into the shower. Wearing your best boating attire step inside the shower and get under the spraying water and start tearing up $100 dollar bills into tiny shreds that flow down the drain. If you find you enjoy that you will love owning a sail boat.surprise_i'm_armed wrote:The 2 happiest day in a boat owner's life are:

Re: $100 Screwdrivers?
The K22 Sight adjustment tool (if it is a true original) has some value to collectors.
The screwdrivers shipped with the guns back in the day. If you have a prime collector piece and want to complete the whole package, the $100 is a small price to pay (for some).
Harbor Freight and Smith and Wesson in the same sentence... that is just so wrong in so many ways
