Well with just a cursory glance i would say the stock is a WW2 replacement and the TG seems to have been replaced with an 03-A3 magazine box assembly.
$500. would be more realistic.

A re-barreled mix-master? $2700.00--are you for real? Pass, pass, pass!!! $550.00 tops.
Don't forget that it has been secured in a gun safe since it's purchase from a military collector in August of 2000. Hard to put a value on that.
high hopes id say.... some of the parts 800.00...realistic price on that rifle as a shooter.. 650.00
That gun safe wasn't too secure..............somebody stole the rear sight binding screw!! :)
Obviously you guys didn't notice that it comes 'WITH SLING' ;)
I think the seller actually thinks he has a prize rifle.
We will be seeing it at the local gunshow for $550.00 next weekend. Guys put junk on these auction sites just looking for that one certain sucker. Happy hunting.
Usual reasons:
1) "My friend says this rifle is worth a LOT of money"
2) They got taken when they bought the rifle and have to get their money out of it
3) A charter member of the IOTOS Club ("It only takes one sucker")
I used to see a guy at the gunshows in Wash/Oregon area some years back. He would have 1-2 items on his table for crazy money. I recall the top end of a GI M1911A1, barrel and slide. $2000.00(Remington-common parts) for it, he had it for several shows and finally sold it. People would ask about his stuff and he would always say it was uncommon and worth the price. You really only need one fool to make a good gunshow. Let the buyer beware.
Guys Guys It's out of Franklin Tenn. For those that don't know Franklin is one of the richer suburbs of Nashville. Why the rubber strip on the bumber of a 1960's Buick is worth 2 grand. Even when they hit you and are on the wrong side of the road.
The crappy pictures add to the value...and go hand in hand with the fantasy description.
I think the biggest culprit is blue books. They're way off the mark. On top of that the seller will plug in the highest number on the page. The next time you're at the book store or gun shop, take a look and you'll see what I mean.
