Suggested Citation for Aircrewman M13 Production Variant

Suggesting citation here due to my COI with the cited source.

Under ==Production Variants==, first paragraph, last sentence, after: "However, after continued negative reports, Air Force officials decided that the revolvers were not suitable for issue, and the model was withdrawn from service, all but a few examples being crushed or destroyed."

Suggest adding:

Remaining examples are valuable collectibles, with one selling on GunBroker.com for $10,000 USD on 20 June 2024.
