M1C scope mount

**rice 123** · 09-14-2010 10:30 PM

A friend has been on me to sell him my M1C, I told him he could have it for what I have in it which is $6500.He has asked if I would sell it without the scope base and mount as he has one. my mount is orginal and very nice the scope is a B series Alaskan which is correct for a 51 rebuild. His reasoning is that with the Cs becoming available though the CMP icon

I would have no trouble selling the scope and mount for more then I paid for them however I have 1200 in the mount and 300 in the scope which would mean that I would have to sell them for more than 1500 just to break even.Does anyone think that the demand for the B series scope and a original mount would bring more then 1500 I am doubtful in this economy. Also He wants to do a partial trade for a correct 43 winchester garand the only thing I can find wrong is the stock is a real winchester but the stamp is fake any ideas of the value of a correct win garand with a bad cartouch

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

You're better off keeping what is a "known" commodity than selling and trading for what is an "unknown" commodity, friend or not. Just say "no."

here is a pic of my C I have been running hot and cold on selling it I have been trying to reduce my collection I thought letting go to a friend for what I have in it 6500 which I think is a pretty fair price. but he wants to do a partial trade which does not help me reduce my collection

Sell him your rifle intact and let HIM speculate on reselling the extra mount and scope. IMHO, a stock with a fake cartouche is ruined forever.

He is coming over today from looking over gunbroker I think 1600 would be more then fair for with winchester I am pretty sure he would want more then that so I doubt the deal with happen, vdoes anyone think that 1600 for a correct winchester with a fake cartouch is to low
