Winchester Garand question

[dbarn]

Early Winchester (1941) fancy walnut is best you will ever find on a WW2 M1 rifle.

Agreed, my 1944 2.4 million appears to be sap wood, a lighter yellowish color on one side. The front hand guard has a nice contrasting grain however. It's also a pretty beefy stock. Regarding the metal, there are quite a few cosmetic, rough exterior milling areas, but it appears to have never affected function. They are smooth where it counts.

If I decide to sell ( or trade) my 2.4 W-W parts gun, what should a FAIR price?

It would depend on how many Winchester parts, original finish, and TE and ME. If just the receiver there may be a slight premium for some one who wants one. Maybe $650-850. If more Winchester parts then north from there. To maximize your dollars, you would probably do better to part out.

Its just the receiver. Other parts are mixed. 650-850 sound about right. I am new on this forum, how do You list for sale?
