    My guess is the hand guards would be valued most by guys trying to build up "retro" AR-15s. Probably $30-35+ for a pair (two halfs) plus shipping

    Butstocks would be the same, but condition is key and there seems to be some rust. maybe $20 plus shipping.

    Other may have different opinions.

    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.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    First the most important thing, your rifle stocks are for the US M16A1 rifle. They are the very first variant with the triangle handguard and fixed shoulder stock.

    I'd put them on eBay and sell them as a complete set, one shoulder stock complete with one handguard (each handguard consists of two parts).

    M16A1 or M16A2?

    I sold one of these butts on Ebay as a M16A1 as many here has ID'd these as, but the man who bought it said it was a M16A2. He said it was still a great deal and gave me good FB, but I would like to know for sure what I am selling and don't want to sell something miss identified. Can someone tell me the difference in the A1 and A2?

    Going back and looking at the photos your but stocks are A2 variants based on the but plates.

    I have since learned that 3 of the butt stocks are A1 (shorter 9 7/8") and the rest are A2 ( 10 1/2").
