Crosman M1 Valuation

[grezoor]

Good evening
what would my Crosman M1 carbine with metal mag minus the plastic slide and in good working order be worth? it's the plastic stock version with all original sights and the usual wear to the finish on the barrel where it is pushed in to cock it , this will be for sale when you chaps have told me its value, I thank you

I would think in the region of £100-£125 .

Thanks chaps
interesting that a metal mag went for £110 on y-abe last week , at that price seems that the gun is almost worthless with out it

Thanks to that site there are now more idiots than there are bargains.

I think the education system in this country is more to blame for that than evil bay Pete.

It does seem a bit strange but the tradition has always been that the M-1, to be worth something on the collector's market in the US, has to be complete with the original mag. A nice wood stock model complete is worth $150 plus. Exact same thing without the mag is worth less than half that. So, yes, the mag can be worth more than the gun. The simple reason being that there are many fewer magazines than there are guns.

Was hapy to pay £150 for mine at the Bisley show last year. Well made little rifle with metal mag almost identical to my General Motors Inland Division one.

I'd have thought £150 was a fair price....
