pm m24armorer or call the bay area gunvault and ask them about the gunsmith they use.

Your M1 carbine can fetch about 600-700 dollars.

If its a WWII original GI Issue you might get even more.

If you need help Identifying, pm me. I have a lot of info on M1 Carbines after doing my research.
If you want to verify the carbine works, I have some ammo you can use.



The Japanese rifle you might get 500 or something.
Don't do consignment if you want to maximize your potential earning.

both Frank and the folks at Contra Costa are great...contra costa in particular has lots of old stuff so am guessing they would have comps to help you value your particular rifle

Don't mean to hijack here, but does Frank at Tabor's put together AR uppers as well? I'm looking to get an SPR upper built. Have the parts but am not the handy type.
If Frank's not the guy, any other suggestions?
