    It most certainly would flood the Canadian market! Now, having said that, I could see spending $500-$600 for one in good shape... Past that & other stuff takes priority, like new manufactured stuff...

    I Saw some pictures of the Korea m1 Garands many years ago
    Stacked like lumber on skids
    Saw a news clip of them just throwing them in to piles like you would throw firewood

    Were these fired with corrosive ammo??
    Were these put away with Cosomiline?
    Were these even cleaned before going into storage?
    What was the storage like?

    $150 to $200 tops---> sight unseen for these Garands

    A surplus rifle that you buy
    = Crate till you buy it
    =cosomile
    = Stored in a dry place
    =$200-$300

    If in good to very good condition, around $650. If they turn out to be mostly in poor to fair condition, I'd not be in it.

    My guns, even the collectable ones, must be shooters (and not the dust it off every 2 years and fire 20 shots sort of shooter). If they're worn out they're of little to no interest at collector prices.

    With this kind of volume I'd expect quite an interesting price.

    Considering it might chop my ww2 springfield value by a lot.. And that they are in apparent bad shape.. They would have to be pretty cheap.. Like 250-500$
