TEC. 9 Worth early 90's vintage

[FourTeeFive]

Wait Tubbs and Crocket now or back in the day lol !

Back then, but not early on when Tubbs had the TEC-9.



I preferred later on when he had the cool little shorty shotty. I still want one of those even though I can't think of any real purpose for it.



And I'll definitely take Crockett's Bren Ten.

And Detonics may still be a good 1990's investment ?

On a positive note no matter what I load it with factory or home brew 9mm it has never and I mean never jammed but the sights did fall off and now has a welded nail front sight !

But have you mastered the TEC-9 grimace while firing? Bonus points if you've got a cheesy 80s porn star mustache.

Not like a Bren Ten. I've seen a few Detonics of various styles pop up at DJ's in Bothell. A really nice one might go for a few grand, but a Bren Ten can get into five figures.

That said, the really thin mini Detonics 45 with no sights on it was pretty cool. I had heard a few three letter agencies and some SEALs used to use them as backup weapons back in the day.

P.S. - Apologies to the original poster for the "Old Guy's Guide to the Guns of Miami Vice" thread hijack.

Ahhh but they will never sound as good as when Crocket was shooting it ! Those 80's sound effects were on point lol !

In all honestly it is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it a Raven was once $40 and now goes for what $200-250 like they say there is one borne every minute .

I still have a pair of Ray Ban Wayfarers (just like Don Johnson wore) and pair of Vuarnets, both from the mid 80s. Think it's time to buy some pastel colored t-shirts and silk sport coats.

as a parts kit they run around $400 and up for a full hand gun around $650 + current SOLD $$ on gunbroker

Gunbroker is a terrible gauge for gun/firearm prices almost like insider trading . I wanted a HK USP 45 ELITE on GB prices are from 1k to $1799 I purchased one new with two extra mags for $1100 !

But it's a good place to sell harder to find and "desirable" items.

No Gunbroker is an excellant gauge for the extreme high end of the market.
