Has anybody been watching auction sites for what M1 carbines are selling for. I've got 5 saved, they are all around a grand with 5-6 days to go. My only baby not fo sale.

No, has to be two or three grand each in a world were a 91/30 refurb is bringing 600 or more. Or a box of shotshells brings two hundred.

Holy crap I paid $734 taxes in, might have to get an other.

What is that in US dollars? Just the other day one of my customers was bitching that he wanted a carbine, but everyone he found was over a grand. He was thinking 400-500, I was thinking shit in one hand, wish in the other..........

I wonder who will handle the cavity searches more professionally, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, or the US Border Patrol?

That Sir is something I don't want to find out.

So for converted $ lets say around $590 US. Prices may be depressed here because of Liberal Govt moves to ban vast swaths of semi autos.

M1's are not on the list, Carbines or Garands. Also the SKS is not on the list but have you seen the price of those Lately?

Just a few years ago we could buy one at Cabelas for $199CDN.. Now they are going for $499 for a plain jane wood stock and up to $600 for a laminate.

It's getting crazy up here, even SVT 40's are going for $1200 and up.

Someone bought a box of 25 birdshot shells for $200 a couple weeks back , and he doesn't even own a gun. Friend of ours reporting the actions of a coworker on the RR down in the city. Crazy is all around us, and likely to get worse with the politicians vomiting shit about more gun control.

We have several M1 carbines for sale at the shop none under $1500. We just sold and all original Inland Paratrooper for $3200.

This made me think of you JYD.

The M1 Carbine is about the only thing left on my wish list to purchase. Just watched them jump from the starting price of about $1,400 to double that with the last craze going on. Looking again this week and they've come back down slightly so there's maybe some hope yet. I have never understood why they're so expensive and the price just keeps climbing.

These have to be the most popular US milsurp in history. I know more GI's who sneaked these home than any other type of rifle. They were producing these for the commercial market as early as the 1950's , first out of leftover GI parts, and later making them new. No other milsurp that isn't a 1911 can make that claim. This is the US milsurp that anyone can shoot, little kids, grandma, anyone can shoot this, easy as a .22. These have never been cheap, and never will be.

I may have to contact you once I get all my pennies saved. Your not to far across the river from me. I've picked up used tractor parts all around your area.

Save them up and come on down.

I've got a buddy who bought a collection from a widow today, he rolled back a blanket and there lay SIX war babies. Two Inland para, a rockola, Irwin Peterson, a Winchester and a Saganaw. He is going back for a pistol haul , has seen broom handles, Lugers, Tokarev, already. I'll be posting some of the carbines on here for sale later. I'm not saying anything about the 1897 Winchester 12. I'll post it when it's mine.

Since they have to be careful, it may be all of them.
