Price is a function of demand. The reason those guns sell in that range is that the size of demand is low.

The number of shooters who want those guns is a declining number and will likely continue to be so.

Yes there are some solid field grade guns out there that can be gotten at a great price. They will be shooters not collector guns as they will not likely grow in value. At the same time it is likely they will hold there value at the bottom of the market.
