David you will be interested to know that I saw just such a situation at a
dealer here in Calgary, who had two M4 if I remember correctly, with
consecutive serial #'s. I believe they were asking $3000 a piece, as a
set. I know they have been sold, but I don't know what they went for. It
was interesting to see these in the display case, but not $6000 worth of
interesting.
