I was just curious, the one I saw appeared correct and in average condition other than the MGM marking and some other number stamped on it, just another part of the guns history, Apparently MGM sold...

I recently read an article by Phil Spangenberger (True West Magazine) about movie studio marked guns and am asking here because I've seen an MGM marked Trapdoor and wondered if the value is any more...
