Does anyone have any knowledge on this gun? If so is it worth the price?

I've had several M1 carbines. Not very accurate. The price seems very steep for that one.
I would think a mini 30 would suit ya if you looking for a carbine. Haven't priced them lately but should be lots cheaper than that.

Seems steep to me also. I saw some at the gun show in mint cond for much less. It may have some sentimental value to the seller. Example: I paid $20 for mine in 1965 from the NRA and wouldn't take twice that for it..
If u really want one u can fine a better deal than that...
how about 8 times that? I got a couple crisp benjamins would give ya for it. ;)Quote:

Mint cond. goes for about 500 to 700, standart run of the mill grade is about 100 to 300 depending on the buyer
Carried on of those things a long way around up-loaded aircraft in the 60s. You couldn't chase me fast enough to give me one today.
guns are going crazy high right now, especially AR's and AK's at gun shows!A fella sold his AR/DPMS for $2200!!! Before he ever made it into the show!!!! NUTS!! THANKS OBAMA!!!
I was looking at Gun broker and there are some priced higher than that!Check it out.M1 Carbine for Sale - Buy M1 Carbine Online at GunBroker.com

Mini 30 has WAY more punch than that 30cal.Quote:

It's a seller's market for now. Set the price and see who wants it. I saw primers at $60 per carton today.
Market is crazy.:banghead
Theres a guy running a ad in the Tupelo Journal everyday......he is selling 22 long rifle ammo.....box of 50 for 30 bucks a box.
I will buy any 30 carbine you can lay your hands on for $300 as long as they are operational and function as they should.Quote:

I'm still gonna hold you to your offer and ill bring the beer.
Seller's market makes it a buyers nightmare. If you want it, you will pay for it. No end in sight. This has lasted longer than anytime in our history and he
is still the #1 gun salesman in America. Just my thinking, but I don't see any improvement in the near future. I'm in contact with a number of folks looking
for deals, and the good deals are scarce. If you didn't have what you wanted when all this started, you will do without or pay the price the seller asks.
I started buying ammo several years ago and glad I did. Water and ammo may be the new silver and gold. I travel around checking a good number of places
that normally have ammo at a good price. I think the ammo is being sold off the docks before it makes it into the stores. Rumors abound.
I was quoteing actual prices, not obammy scare prices, if folks will chill out the prices will come back inline with reasonable in a few months, i may not know as much as some about crappie, but i do know guns.I'm one of those gun nuts the the neighbors are scared of...lol.
I hope you are right. I hoped the same when gas went above $3.00 per gallon and I am still waiting.Quote:

Neither are guns! Let me know if you have any for sale at 2 year ago prices. I will buy them from you.Quote:

I opened a craigslist local ad yesterday. 40 sw once fired brass 10 cent each, got 5,000. Another local dealer has it for .03 each, cleaned .04 each, polished .05 each and decapped .06 each. Pay these higher prices and reloads will cost as much as factory ammo.
From another forum, south MS. "I paid $17. with tax for 2 boxes of primers. "
At this point its about as economical to just chunk grenades rather than shoot...
