23 Most Expensive Guns Sold on GunBroker | May 2025
The May 2025 GunBroker Report: 23 Most Expensive Guns Sold by Total Dollars | Auction or Fixed-Price
May 2025 brought a wave of elite and valuable guns on GunBroker.com, with collectors and enthusiasts driving fierce bidding wars over rare machine guns, vintage Colts, and movie-provenance firearms. The top-selling items this month ranged from Cold War classics and Olympic-grade shotguns to ultra-rare revolver sets that turned heads across the collecting world.
Below are three standout items, followed by the full Top 25 list ranked from lowest to highest sale price.
#8 – PAWS M16 ZX16A1 Full Auto “Movie Gun”
Final Price: $27,140
Bids: 49 | Bidders: 12
This transferable machine gun isn’t just a collectible—it’s a piece of Hollywood history. Originally used by Independent Studio Services (ISS), this M16 appeared in major productions like Sons of Anarchy, Banshee, and Lone Survivor. It was later fully restored by Sons of Liberty Gun Works to resemble a Vietnam-era configuration with modern internals and a sleek gunmetal Cerakote finish.
What makes it truly unique? While many movie props are non-firing replicas, this M16 is the real deal: full-auto, transferable, and tested post-refinish. With tight upper/lower fitment, a SOLGW barrel and BCG, and a signed letter of authenticity from ISS, this firearm is a crossover treasure for both gun and film collectors.
#1 – 1985 Colt BOA Revolver Set (Consecutive Serials)
Final Price: $48,802
Bids: 69 | Bidders: 16
Meet the undisputed king of the snake guns. This extraordinary set of Colt BOAs—serials #1176 and #1177—represents the rarest revolver release from Colt’s Custom Shop. Produced in 1985 for the Lew Horton Special Distributor Program, fewer than 1,200 were made, and matched sets like this are nearly unheard of.
Both revolvers came with original boxes, matching paperwork, and factory inserts. Their collector-grade, new old stock condition helped push this set toward the $50K mark. As far as investment-grade Colt revolvers go, this is as blue-chip as it gets and this set ranks #1 of the most expensive guns sold in May on GunBroker.
#21 – FN FNC Para (Registered Receiver w/ 3-Round Burst)
Final Price: $19,469
Bids: 28 | Bidders: 12
The FN FNC is already a cult favorite among machine gun collectors, and this example stood out for being a registered receiver (not just a sear conversion) with modern upgrades. Outfitted with a TBA Suppressors 3-round burst kit and custom refinishing from Sinner Mass Fabrications, this para-config FNC is a fully modernized throwback.
Added touches like a StormWerkz rail, anti-rotation pins from Halcyon Defense, and compatibility with AR magazines make this a serious shooter as well as a collector’s prize. Provenance via Ruben Mendiola at Dealer NFA added even more trust to this high-octane package and making it #21 on the most valuable list.
