    That seller is well-respected and gets a lot of rare items (and corresponding big bucks).
    It's more than likely legit.

    He has some really nice guns for sale right now. Several I would love to have.

    You aren't kidding. I would love to have the cash to drop on a real M40. But its at 1K already and I do not see that stopping any time soon.

    Also very cool that it was ordered by a police dept.

    So how much will it go for, price of right rules. Closest to actual retail price without going over. I'm thinking it will go for $7500. What say you guys?

    I know of 1 other that is available other than this one. Asking price $25,000.00

    Guy is serious. He won't take any less.

    Geez, I was going to guess $7k but looks like that's really low :)
    I know it'll be many thousands more than I can afford, regardless....

    The CMP gets crazy money for their items. I seen a welded up 1903a4 receiver bring 3500. I don't think it will go for no more than 9500. Will have to watch and see. If I had the cash and won the rifle I would shoot it. It's not like it has not been shot before. The only thing I would do is remove the vintage scope.

    I have it on my watch list and it has only had one more bid since yesterday, up to $1,025 now.
    Only 5 bidders so far, with 12 days left. I have seen prices things on Gun Broker really go through the roof before, in the last day or 2.
    I am going to say that it goes for $21,750.00.

    I wonder now if this thing is going to command the BIG bucks since it didn't see any Vietnam action? I know it still has 11 days left but I thought for sure it would be much higher by now. It will be interesting to see where this thing finally lands. I may throw a bid or two out there and see if it sticks.

    Good luck!
    Waaay far outside my collecting focus but a pretty neat piece of history, whether it was used in combat or not...
