    A family friend, who is a widow, is trying to sell off a bunch of military surplus stuff. She had a ton of medals, pins, a couple 1911 magazine holsters, flashlights, canteens, SKS bandoleers, old first aid boxes, and a ton of camo clothing. We had a gentleman come by last night and buy some stuff, but I need help evaluating these items.

    1. M16A1 stocks (3), and (2) triangular handguard sets. Appear to be in good, surplus condition. I don't see any obvious damage, and will try to get better pics next time I go over.

    2. Greyish blue polymer M14 stock. I don't know everything that is supposed to go with it. I am trying to go thru everything.

    3. What looks to be a 1863 Musket stock. I assume it is a reproduction. Says US Mod 1863 on the lock plate.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    The m16A1 sets are highly desirable right now. I think they are going for $600 or more per set.

    I’d say perhaps if you had the upper, FCG and all the other parts that come with the parts kit. Furniture can be desirable, but I wouldn’t put $600 on furniture on its own.

    Double check that before you get excited.

    I don't know if things changed that much in the last year but $600 would be a complete kit with everything but barrel and Lower in Grade A condition.
