Yes. You can buy handguns for a couple of hundred dollars. For a few thousand you are able to buy much larger, more capable weapons like modern assault rifles or designated marksman rifles/sniper rifles. You could buy a small arsenal for 40k.
This isn’t a good example of “how much does a gun cost” because it’s a historical relic. It’s also fully automatic which makes it more difficult to legally own.
Maybe irrelevant but, is $40k a lot for a gun? I’m aware that there are many cheaper, but are there others in this range?
