No. turns out guns are expensive. After all these WWII games I really wanted to pick up a M1 Grand or Springfield, but they both went for $750+ I was very close to picking up a revolver (going for 150), or a shotgun (12 guage for 250), or a bolt action rifle of some sort (around 150).
Yeah, I've allways wanted an M1 myself... but a nice one can cost upwards of a 1000 bucks... And the AR-10 I really want is at least $1200. Cant justify the cost, especially since I havent shot my AR-15 in 3 years....
I found a site online that has used m1's for a pretty reasonable price (compared to the gun show). http://www.odcmp.com/Services/Rifles/m1garand.htm
