A gun believed to belong to Adolf Hitler sold for $150,000 on Christmas Eve with the help of a business in Bloomington, Illinois.

Midwest Exchange posted the auction on GunBroker.com for the seller, local newspaper The Pantagraph reported. Bidding started at $100,000 on Dec. 1, but the auction received only two bids — $124,000 and $136,500 — neither of which topped the reserve price set before the auction started.

However, the offer also attracted an outside bidder who contacted Midwest Exchange personally and offered the winning price of $150,000.

I'm amazed it went that high without physical evidence connecting it to Adolph Hitler.

I wouldn't mind owning the Walther pistol he supposedly zapped himself with. I wonder who picked that up? Probably one of his SS aides...

I have a paperless Vietnam Bring back SKS. I could never sell it as such, but I don't care.
