Anyone noticed the prices of M1s lately?

I went to Cabela's to pick up a Savage 350 shotgun they had on sale. I always go through their gun library to check out the nice stuff. Today they had about a dozen M1 Garands on the rack. The lowest price I saw was one at 2499.00. The rest were 2999.00. None of them were close to the condition of mine. Last Dec I was there and they were running 1500 - 2000 each. I can't imagine what the like new M1D I have would go for there. Market Hall is this weekend. I will see what the price on the street is lately....chris

I stop into the gun library every time i go to Cabelas, some of the prices I've seen for used guns are pretty ridiculous, most of the time they're only about 5% less than a new gun. Maybe the Garands you saw had all matching original parts

I bought mine at the CMP western games a few years ago, it was a completely refurbished CMP special, new criterion barrel, new stock, built on a 1954 Springfield receiver, paid $998.00

I sold one for $1k , 55' springfield.
guess some folks just gotta have em.



I can only imagine the rifles in korea have been rearsenaled a minimum 5 times.
