Few quick pics. Got these in the local paper. Came with 50 clips, 100 rounds 30-06, three carbine mags, 1300 rounds of carbine ammo (was told that it was 2k rounds though) all for the lump sum of 1k!

I am really happy with them. I think that the carbine will go to the auction block. Maybe one of my less desireable Garands as well. I really bought these because they were a deal. And the ammo was icing on the cake.

Any idea of the value of the carbine?

I'd check with Faulkner on the carbine. If you decide to get rid of a Garand let me know, I'm thinking about getting one again. Having let two go over the years I'm jonesing for another.

Good score, especially the M1 rifle. The M1 carbine needs to be restored and get that civilian crap off of it. Rescue a bubba job Paul!

I bought two Underwood carbines from the CMP last year for 500 for one and 575 for the other. The more expensive one was a Bavarian Rural Police marked. Both were rack grade.....chris3

Not a bad score at all. Basically $500 each for the guns and free ammo. The carbine ammo and magazines are easily worth over $400.

Without a breakdown on the carbine it'd be hard to give a value on it, and looks like it's had some mods done to it.

I know that the sights are not original. To be honest. I haven't really had the time to do more research on it. Or look at it really. The blueing on it is about 85%. I tried to show an accurate picture of the barrel. Looks like some slight scratches on it as well. He originally wanted 600 each. When he brought out the garand. I had to have it. Thank you for your input. I am off Sunday. Might try to post some more pictures of it. Thank you for your response.
