    Standard Products M1 carbine (picture heavy)

    As much as I really hate to do this I must sell my Standard Products M1icon carbine. It is all original and unmolested. The bore is like a mirror with crisp lands and grooves. Please take a look at the photos and give me an honest value for this carbine. Thank you very much. I will be placing up for sale once I have an idea on the value.

    If anyone has any questions or would like more/different photos please contact me via PM.


















    Some kind of small repair???





    The muzzle wear is 1.5+ but well under 2.





    I'm not sure why the stock and hand guard look so different in color??? They are pretty close in color actually.

    Horrible photo I know but this shows the shine in the bore.

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Guys, is there anything I can do like more pictures or anything else to get some of you carbine experts to give me an idea of what I should ask for this carbine? I've seen where beater mix matched post war rebuilds are fetching upwards of $800.00??? TIA

    Hi Bill,

    I know someone who just bought an excellent, factory original Rockola for $2500. I'd guess yours at $1500-$1800. Bear in mind that I'm no Carbine expert but I do love them, have sold hundreds over the years and still have a half dozen or so in my personal collection. I have a Quality Hardware that's in identical condition as yours and that's where I'd value it. Hope this helps a bit.

    Brian

    Thank you very much Brian. I've been out of carbines so long and haven't really kept up on sales of them. Like I said I really do not want to sell it but it has to go At least I'll have an all original late war Inland left.
