    M1 Carbine parts value

    What is the value of:
    1. New GI carbine stock. No hardware. No marks proof or otherwise.
    2. New round carbine bolt. Never installed no wear marks?
    Thanks.

    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.

    Sounds like you have either a post-war or a commercial stock if it’s new and unmarked? Commercial....almost worthless. Post-war GI replacement $50-$75.

    Bolts....it’s a guess not knowing who made it. $75 and up for USGI, or maybe not much if it’s commercial.

    Need to know who made it?

    Some parts I picked up in the 1960's from an armorer who had been instructed to sent to salvage.
    Stock new un issued GI- probably post war replacement
    Bolt new complete, unissued marked A.1 and a "T" or "I" on left lug. do not know maker
    Trigger housing, milled, with flip safety and mag release marked with "M" underlined. Only marking an "A"
    All unissued as new.
    Had no real use for them but had a carbine bought through DCM and thought I might need new arts.
    Thanks for your reply
    Not trying to sell.

    AI is an Inland WW2 bolt. If the stock is a pot belly it most likely is post was and could be as late as Vietnam as it has not markings. The trigger housing could be almost anyone. Pictures of it would help. The bolt if complete about $100+. The stock if pot belly about $25 and up a bit. The trigger housing would depend if cast or machined and if it's a WW2 original could be at least $75.

    I think most of these parts, if in excellent condition would be worth close to double or more what these guys are telling you. - Bob

    Why would you want value if you aren't selling?

    Insurance purposes. I catalog my stuff. Ya never know!
    Everyone should. The guns are a no-brainer but the accessories, parts, and ammo really adds up!

    Sorry for the advice. I’ll be careful not to provide anymore unsolicited advice on this public forum in the future.
