Value Of M1 Carbine 30 Round SEY Hardback Magazine
Hello, I just bought a SEY marked 30 round M1 Carbine magazine, it
appears to be the hardback SEY version of the magazine. I don't have a
picture, but if one is needed I can put one up. It has three gooves on each
side of the magazine, the two outer grooves go all the way up and down
each side of the magazine and the groove in the center of the magazine
is about 2.5" long and centered in the middle of the magazine. I would grade
the magazine at a conservative 90% condition, almost all of the original blue
finish is there, it has not been parkerized. The magazine is complete with spring
and follower, ready to rock and roll. I have not been following the value of these
magazines and would appreciate any info on approx. value of the magazine.
I found the magazine on a local guns and accessories for sale website and I emailed
the seller and asked him if there were any stamped markings such as letters and/or
numbers or symbols stamped in the magazine, he emailed me back about the SEY
stamping and I met up with him last night and I bought the magazine for $20. Thanks
for any help. Trenchgun P.S. I guess that this is my second posting on this site, however
I was a longtime poster starting around 1999 on the old Culver M1 carbine site, I guess that
site is gone, I don't know. I still live, breath and sleep guns everyday, the M1 carbine is but
one gun that I have interests in, I really enjoy buying, selling, trading and learning about guns.
