    Our on-line Milsurp Knowledge Libraries contain detailed reference and research material covering various genres of old milsurp collectibles. The content ranges from general non-copyrighted (or copyrighted with written release) historical documentation, to detailed high resolution photo montages of milsurp firearms and accessories. These photo pictorials containing over 15,000 pics are designed to show original and technically all correct specimens of milsurp collectibles from various countries. Our site is intended to give the average milsurp collector a place to go to compare various wood and metal markings through high resolution close-up digital pictures, in regards to a piece that they may be looking at buying, or validating the correctness of one they've perhaps already purchased.

    M1C value

    a few years ago I purchased a M1C from the CMPicon auction. It has a 1-52 barrel. I got the correct mount, a Alaskan Lyman scope that Dave McClain said was in the correct serial number for a 51 rebuild, a 52 dated checkpad , and a hart cone flashhidder. I was just wondering what the coming offering of Cs & Ds from the CMP was going to do to my M1Cs value

    CMPicon auctions are their own world. It does not alter the real world at all. No idea what you paid at auction, but highly likely more then what it was worth then and now.

    I guess it will depend on the prices the CMPicon sets and the number of each condition they have. They usually price things to sell. The sale of 1100 or so M1C's will probably bring the going price for an average M1C rifle down some, although top condition rifles seem to always be strong.

    The demand for original scopes and mounts will undoubtedly increase with the release of that many rifles, even with the repro units that have been discussed. That increase will probably offset any drop in rifle values.
