The internet has made what you describe almost impossible.There are too many individuals who have guns to actually maintain a base price.That is essentially what is happening now.When a gun comes up on the internet or at a show that is too cheap a dealer will pick it up quickly and mark it up for resale.The problem is that there is not enough demand for "average" guns to justify a high price.As I said before mint,rare,or special order guns are bringing more than I have seen in the last 40 years.But the guns with a little wear are going down in price quickly.
