There are some historic references for low-volume guns. Mike Krause produced something about 20 of .45 caliber Lugers. Each ended costing about $4500 in 1990s dollars. But a DI RMWXtreme sells for only $1150, because the custom content is limited to the lower cut on the CNC machine, which is amortized across all of their products.

Good point, http://www.hallowellco.com/single.htm a more recent reference here if you look at some of the prices, like the price on the 6mm 'rail' gun, those are pretty much always low volume/completely custom. $4500 for that one. Some of the other stuff is only that expensive due to the artsy stuff.
