I posted this on another forum but I’ll post it here also, you can NEVER get too much advice good or bad. Let me know if this is a good general guideline to follow.
Thanks

I am looking for a REAL NICE shooter for my first M1icon. I am mostly doing window shopping for when the BIG gun show comes around in November. From the looks of things on CMPicon a “RACK GRADE” runs around $500 (pretty beat up looking), a “SERVICE GRADE” if you can find one goes for over $1000 (most I have seen wish they looked as good as this). With that in mind, if I find something looking this good, solid feel to it, and under my self-imposed $750 funds, I should jump on it? I would like to pull the trigger on this, but it seems too nice to be real. Will some of you EXPERTS please look this over and let me know if this is what a GREAT DEAL is like or if I am overlooking anything.
Link to GB auction I found (not mine) if this is against the rules I’m sorry.
