Prices seem to be on par now that everything is rising. They seemed to have stayed the same or even decreased.

To order it you'll either need to be an 03FFL yourself, or have it shipped to an 01FFL.

It depends on what you want it for. If you want a shooter or a "remember when" gift for a vet, go with a Mitchell's. But they have little collectors value and are unlikely to ever increase much. They devalue the day you buy them. But if you find a nice bringback it will increase in value over time, and have more historical value.
