I purchased my first M1icon around 1990 for $227. It was from Arlington Ordinance and came out of Korea. It was really rough. Had to replace the barrel, Op Rod and stock plus some small parts as timing would not work to release bolt when loaded. It is now one of my favorites and shoots great. The only good thing about it when received was that it was a WWII Springfield serial number range, 1.3 Mil. IMHO, if those come in they will be pretty much the same as this. Saw a lot of them at gunshows back then and the were beat to hell and had oriental writing on the stocks.
