Well I looked for a year for a m1a1 and it was just easier and cheaper to find a original gun/stock combo. I watched a whole bunch, some that didn't even have all the metal go over $1K with m2 cuts and cracks sometimes.

There is something about those M1A1's that make a feeding frenzy out of bidders. Just the metal or the wood alone seems to go so high, it's supply and demand. Be happy if you have one.....Frank

[jimb16]

Its up to $1145.99! I thought it was bad when I paid $695 for a complete M1A1, now I can double my money on the stock alone!

[Curt]

I just broke down and spent big bucks on the m1a1 I wanted. No reason to screw around with just a junk stock for over a grand.

[phillydude]

wow ,over 1200 for that butchered wood?

[shadycon]

Last year I paid $800 for a complete M1a1. 400xxx ser #. It was carved out but not bad, a little wood filler and at least it is smooth. out side near perfect.

[frankderrico]

That was a good buy. The stock looks great. How about some more pics.....Frank

[shadycon]

Here you go Frank; As you can see, Filler is filler, but you don't see it once it's together. Leather has been replaced and I put on new hinge. It's a shooter.

[frankderrico]

Shadycon, hey you did good (The filler looks fine). Did it come with that barrel band on it? Be proud and enjoy!.....Frank

P.S. I have to go to work, I'll post some of my M1A1 later.....Frank
