Las Vegas, NV --(Ammoland.com)- Powered by more than 100,000 “views” and nearly 160 bids on GunBroker.com, the 2012 SHOT Show auction generated $31,827 in support of America’s hunting and shooting sports heritage.

Coordinated by the Hunting Heritage Trust in conjunction with the NSSF, the 2012 SHOT Show auction on GunBroker.com featured a unique “Glock Statue of Liberty Pistol”, a fully engraved Baron-Winchester Model 1892 rifle commemorating the 30th Anniversary of Baron Technology and two custom Ross Tyser knives.

Bidding was scheduled to close at 1:00 pm on Friday, January 20, the final day of the SHOT Show, but active bidding toward the close of the auction triggered GunBroker.com’s 15-minute rule and several 15-minute extensions.

When the GunBroker.com gavel finally came down, the high bid on the Glock Statue of Liberty Pistol was $15,025; the high bid on the Winchester Model 1892 fully engraved by Baron Engraving was $$12,802 and the two Ross Tyser custom knives auctioned for $2,000 each.
