Hey guys, just wondering if this gun is worth looking into further? GunBroker.com guns: M1 Carbine Paratrooper (item: 103842454 ends: Jul-05-08 07:52:31 PM) I noticed no bids on it and it's starting at 1000 instead of the 2500+ i have seen before. Do you guys think the reserve will just be set really high? |

looks pretty good for an M1 to me. I don't know anything about them other than I could get a full size one for $1000 at big five and it is in way worse condition than this one.

Don't bid until the last minute. He did a very poor job of advertising it, so I don't think the sale will go as high as it otherwise might have. If you start bidding too early, it will start a bidding war and the price will go too high too fast.

Does he guarantee that's it's a real paratrooper model?
