Looking for value of Thompson Bridgeport L drum from WW2

[RCS]

I have been looking on the internet but finding an original Bridgeport TSMG L drum for sale has been difficult to find. There are all kinds of reproductions but nothing relating to WW2


This Bridgeport drum is NOS, still in the factory cardboard sleeve, never loaded or fired, still new.

Any help to value (US) would be appreciated RCSAttachment 120261Attachment 120262Attachment 120263Attachment 120264Attachment 120265

Seems to me that would be pushing the 3K range, IIRC.

I gave 500 bucks for a NOS Bridgeport L twenty years ago. A number of contractors made drums during WWII. a good guide is here
