Lend Lease Garand

[RCS]

There are a few ways to get a gas trap rifle, alot depends on how original and how much you want to spend. Anything that is stated to be original will start around $30,000 to $40,000 and on up in price. There is alot of "put together" gas trap rifles on auctions too, early gas trap receiver, fake barrel, maybe an original gas cylinder or a complete fake gas system, few have
the front handguard ferrule but there are cheap castings available - originals are $1500 if you can find them. The fakes are almost never found with the keystone spring but there nice repros that look good and work, To find a SA SPG stock that is still no-trap will cost around $3000 to $4000 if available, there are alot of repro gas trap barrels few originals are ever available.

If you want a nice gas trap rifle, buy a nice kit for around $2200 for the front end, buy some nice springs and find a receiver with low guide ribs (photo) nice project and you can shoot it all you want.Attachment 40932
