It's my dream to display my C&R rifles like in the picture.

48 rifles with an average of $700 each = $33,600

Would love to see that rack of carbines to the left too! Especially in my garage!

When you run out of .45 pistols to collect, you can always get .54 pistols to collect...

$700 is a baseline price for decent mixmaster Garand with decent TE/MW. I am guessing that most of the pictured rifles are nicer than that. There appears to be a few M1-D's in there as well. I'd bump that estimate up quite a bit.

OP: Do you collect exclusively Garands and M1 carbines?

Those belong to a friend,far away, his other collection is about 500
45 ACP pistols. He does also have a rack full of Carbines. Pete

Well, my compliments to him. Every Garand is living history, and those of us who collect and enjoy them are preserving them for posterity.

I'd like to see a few more pic's of the racks, and how they were made. I'm in the process of designing something similar...
