An Elvis Presley firearm sold for a pretty penny on an Illinois
auction block recently.

The king of rock ‘n’ roll’s Smith & Wesson Model 53 revolver
fetched $199,750 at Rock Island Auction Company (RIAC)’s
August Premier Auction on Aug. 26 in Rock Island, Illinois.

The engraved revolver exceeded its pre-auction estimate of
$60,000 to $90,000 due to "competitive bidding from gun
enthusiasts" and Elvis fans around the world, according to
a press release from RIAC.

Some of Elvis’ gun collection.
