Garand value

[Wolfy 51]

I have a current production SA M1 I am thinking of selling. The rifle is not for sale on the board. I need help deciding what the value of the rifle is please post your suggestions. I bought it new from SA 7-8 years ago and have shot less than a 1,000 rounds through it.

you get the idea..

i think 700-900 would be a fair price depending on condition......there are people out there asking for more but i don't see them selling unless they are something special....i think much more than that you will be in the m1a price range.

You are comparing apples and oranges. It the rifle in question is a commercial copy produced by Springfield Armory INC., it is not the same rifle as the military productions and the value is totally different. Unfortunately the CMP has made many available at decent prices with a few hundred thousand more on the way in the near future.

 

While they may look identical, the big difference is that the commercial copy used a cast receiver produced overseas, possibly Brazil. It will function just fine but the values cannot be compared to the original rifles .

I understand that rscalzo that is why I stated it is a new model.

I'll give you a case of small and large primers

[mikeyboyeee 66]

Is that the one I shot at Central Jersey?

[tony357 386]

here is a new one, so i would take a couple hundred off for being used as long as it is in good shape..

But most don't as shown by the comparision to the IH & the Springfield.

 

The last one listed is a commercial copy of the Garand as it has the CAI (Century Arms) receiver using surplus parts. Opinions vary on that receiver but I don't believe Springfield used them in their builds. I think it is one WAY overpriced.

Friend just got a Garand from CMP for $600.00. It was in great shape. Plus, he got it in 1 month which was a surprise since CMP said it will take up to 120 days.

:shock:

My CMP Special was $995 + shipping, for an essentially rebuilt rifle, new wood & barrel, reparked parts. I have no idea if the quality of the SA Inc. M1s the same as the GI, or they shoot the same or better, but there are lots of CMP rifles for re-sale, and there is an abundance available from the CMP now. If brandy-new SA Incs are going for $1275-ish, maybe you can move it for a grand? There are a lot of people who dont meet or won't go to the trouble of doing the CMP paperwork, so there is definetly a market. Hope you can sell it for a decent price--

Mikey yes it is the one you shot.

 

Matt 2 cases small pistol primers and one large and we have a deal. :text-lol:

Done, when can I pick it up?

 

ps, tim when can I stop by your house I uhh need to temporarily borrow some primers

[tbtrout 141]

I can cover that, but then I should just trade him for it and keep the rifle for me.

[matt6669 71]

no because I heard you say yourself tonight that you needed to get rid of some of your longarms

[Wolfy 51]

What's he getting rid of?

[tbtrout 141]

What's he getting rid of?

Redhawk

[Wolfy 51]

To Matt that's a rifle.

[tbtrout 141]

It's as heavy as one

[matt6669 71]

What's he getting rid of?

Redhawk

 

I'd buy it, but I have no money for a redhawk right now. I have more important wants first.

 

This milsurp bug has hit me hard grr

Rich, what your opinon on Wolfy's be as far as value? I have seen the rifle and it is in like new condition.
