      You guys both might want to know how much does it worth?
      But you will probably get a better response if you ask "how much is it worth"
      And it's all depends on who made it.
      Several people make dummy M2's .
      Some are made with original parts , some are made out of resin, Some are sim fired (propane and oxygen)
      Some have removable barrels .
      Need more info in order to help estimate it's worth.

        Based on the other thread about a "M1 Garand Carbine Paratrooper", there's going to be very little information, a few small pictures that are "exactly like this" but which actually aren't exactly like it, and other wrong turns & false leads.

            Ballpark for actual metal ones made from parts kits are between 2-4K

            replica ones make to look like M2's are more like 1K to 1,500
            Resin ones can be had for less than $400

                        It is a parts kit assembled using dummy receiver parts, possibly welded up, too.
                        I would pay $800 but, I don't need one.
                        Someone who needs one may pay more.

                        I've sold and bought lots of dummy/replica guns, the prices fluctuate, as does the market.

                        I am always interested in buying dummy guns or interesting old school replica guns - using them is my business.

                          It all depends on if or many parts, including internals are "real" parts.

                          If it is a actual Service 50BMG M2 that was just simply demilled, it is worth a pretty penny. If some sort of cheap replica, then it is worth cheap replica pricing.
