Did spam cams run out. I missed them years ago I've been broke since they came back and now I don't see them on the site.

I will begin selling Garands once again from my bloated inventory around mid October, but they are some of my more expensive rifles. They'll be a mix of International Harvesters, Springfield Armory, a SA made by Roland Beaver for match type work and a Pietro Berretta (PB) or two.
Prices will range from $1250 to $2100. I no longer have any entry level Garands. I am selling to reduce the holdings because of a medical condition that has ruined my lungs.
Send me an email if interested and outline your want(s), and I will responded, but I will not be able to provide pics till later this month.

Only Garand you could get at that price would be a non firing drill rifle.
If you ever do find a firing Garand at that price, jump on it do not wait as it would not last long. You never know,Good luck
Its not the historical value that sets the priceI had made the original post with a lot less background knowledge. I just figured there had been companies that had made newer M1 garands that were the same gun, just modernized and with no historical value and sold relatively cheap. Apparently there aren't lol.

SAI used to make commercial Garands but stopped as they could not compete with CMP. It is costly to produce a commercial garand
Just look at the price of M1A's
Yup. I can't imagine commercial Garand family receivers (M1, M14/M1A, BM59) ever being as cheap as AR uppers and lowers, barring some massive advancement in metal-forming technology. M1 receivers are very complex geometries to machine, which translates to a lot of labor and therefore cost to produce. The GOV made them when talented machinists were a lot more common and worked for a lot less money.
They could be "not accepting orders" for six weeks or six months; there's no knowing. Keep an eye on them, have your paperwork ready, and jump when they start accepting orders again.
You could sign up for their e-mail newsletter; that will help you stay on top of what's happening.
I think that the Feds Obama have blocked incoming sales, but the suggestion is till good. Wish I had bought earlier.
