    Picked up a M1a1 please give opinions

    I just picked this up the other day from my brother. I am pretty sure that it was rearsenalled during the late 40s. I think it correct in that respect, I know Inland would be the correct manufacturer for an M1a1, but could different manufacturers have been put in a para trooper stock during the rebuild processs or were the M1a1s done together so they couldnt get mixed up?
    Any thoughts on the value.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Looks like a rebuild that is in good shape.

    Mauser: As far as I know, they were treated just like any other arsenaled carbine with a completed rifle put togather into whatever stock was up next, to complete a whole rifle. I would guess it would be in the $1500-2000 range depending on how it was marketed.
