M2 PRICE

[berettabattler]

The other day, I was with an friend of mine and went to look at some ww2 rifles with him.. He was looking at an 1903 and I asked if they have any m2's in stock.

they did, it came with an trijicon reflex, surefire lighted forehand, laserlyte green laser, extended mag tube, mesa tactical side saddle with rail mount, magpul ms4 sling. all for $1k.. does that seem reasonable for an used m2? or did i overpay for it?

aside from benelli, does anyone make an +2 mag tube? the one that's on right now is a bit too long for my taste, I want to have it flush with the barrel..

thanks.

Sounds like a good deal to me. Add up the value of the accessories alone. I think you did good.

If it cycles 3 dram, 1 1/8+ shells reliably with all that stuff on it, it's a keeper.

I run federal and winchester bulk packs from Walmart that are 3 dram with no issues at all on my m2.

edit: guess you meant with all the accessories on it. mine is stock with nothing on it.

I'd say you got a great price on it. The Trijicon is worth @ 300, the Surefire forend is 100-200 and the M2 itself @ 750-850.

Yeah, every so often I'll see a gun with a ton of stuff bolted to it that has trouble cycling high brass.

Inertia system likes to run light.

Mercury recoil reducers and side saddles were a problem in the 90's.
