As far as what the stuff will go for, I think 500 (if everyone is turned off by the finish) to as much as 800 would not be out of the question. I can even see it going for more if two less than intelligent fellows get in a bidding war.
I'll keep an eye on it. I am curious, but not destined to win the stuff.

I expect that "kit" will end up going for around $600. Possibly higher.....
When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

In other words, YES! I don't think the way it's cut qualifies as technically de-milled either. I can see someone named Bubba welding it back together since it's such a straight cut. That of course is no guarantee it will happen.

I'd think you'd want the original parts for that...

Are you talking about the section of receiver missing? I didn't notice that in the description till near the end of the auction. BTW, the kit sold for almost the top price I predicted. I never really thought it would go for that much, but certainly believed it was possible.
