i got a M1 carbine .30 cal with 2 clips. gun shoots amazing and is very accurate. just seeing what i can get as far as a cash price or a trade offer. let me know. thanks

What brand?

Price can very GREATLY. What is the manufacturer, and what is the condition.

i have looked it over and over and all i can find is this...

us carbine
cal 30 M1

i didnt buy it and was to young to be tought about the gun and my grandpa passed away who would know about the gun and he left it to me. i more or less wanna know what its worth.

Is that what is written on the top in front of the bolt? It should have a name brand one it, Iver Johnson, Universal, or a host of others. It doesn't look like a military version, unless the wood was changed. If it is a civilian version which I think it is it isn't worth that much. I picked up one real similar to that one for about 300 bucks. If it is a military version they are at least double that amount. But like I said I don't think it is military issue.

you need to post a price as per rule 6. Post the asking price.
rules for using trading forum http://www.texashuntingforum.com/forum/u...G_PO#Post753493

$100,000 obo

yeah that is what it said on the top infront of the barrell.. then the only other thing is a number that is right infront of the back screw that is holding the metel to the stock

he is asking what it is worth meaning he doesnt have a posting price.... he is asking for HELP ... whistler. thanks helo for helping. oh and if you are a rule poster than post it somewhere else

Does the mag release have a M on it?

You tell him man, way to go!!!

well he said 100,000 how is that for #6

what is your location?
thanks,

HI MODERATOR!!!!!!!

That looks very similar to the 2 I use to have. Mine where made by Universal. I think I sold them for around $250.



Whats wrong with just following the rules ??

nothing wrong with with rules but when someone needs help or asks a ? (help them) dont be a grandma

exactly, he made it clear he had no idea what to ask.

IJ/Universal's are about 250-300; If it was a military one it could range from 400 to 40,000.......

I moved this post from the classifieds.
Y'all help Dovehunter101 figure out what he has and value please. Then if he chooses to sell or trade it, he can post it back up in the classified again with an idea of price..

Look on top at the back of the receiver. Might or might be a serial number, but there may be a manufacture name there just visible under the back of rear sight. Let us know what it says.

Does relate to a way Universal started marking their carbines in the mid 60s. As does the color of your stock as pictured.

yes it does have a M on the mag release.

Thanks for all the help moving my thread over here.

didnt want to start a riot. just trying to get some info and may trade it for something i may use. i think that is what he would of wanted me to do.

The M would indicate a military part, but that does not identify your carbine. A number of commercial companies used surplus parts in their production, and military parts often got mixed up during rebuilds. On the top rear of your carbine should be the manufacturer. Again, it might be partially obscured by the rear sight. But that will tell you what you have. There can be major value differences between commercial and military contractor. And then major value differences between different contractors. Some made more than others. Collectors such as myself often strive to obtain a rifle from every make, and the lower production ones command a premium.

it says quality h.n.c. under the rear site.

Man this site is awesome... some guys really know what there talking about! i would of never found that under the rear site. it was totally hidden
