M1 So you have a rebuild ?

[JimF4M1s (Deceased)]

You did well. With about $300 in the ammo, bayonet $100+ depending on if it has been re-sharpened, 4 used mags $60+, that puts you around $500 for the carbine not counting the other items you didn't show. I would consider that a good deal.

Thanks Jim, that's what I was waiting for. Hard to judge a price from a different country. I'm curious, if you lay out the spares parts, what there might be that's actually valuable.

Here is one of the date and just a few parts, but most are wrapped up in a plastic type FULL of grease, im not even attemping to open and clean it, its s mess, 1 is an Operating Guide Marked HI and just a few parts i cleaned this morning. Also found a Stock and Hanguard marked S A in the Storage yesterday and that Stain came in from Chestnutridge, im going to put this Inland in it when i finish it.

The early band could be worth good coin and the oilers might be worth a bit depending on who made them.

IS, I have 3 parts soaking theres so much grease 1 is a Operating Guide.....Oh well, when I reifinish the Springfield Stock and put the Rifle in, I will keep it awhile and maybe i will sell it here for 800.00 or 900.00...I will just list all the other stuff and Sell the ammo to Pistol and Rifle club somebody will buy it.
