1919 tripod

Hello all !!

Does anyone know how much A 1919 tripod is going for now a days? I would like to get A idea of A WW2 dated one and also A Post WW2 dated one. Not sure if there is A premium for A 1940s dated one. Thanks Andrew

"...A premium for..." Yep.
There's an M2 tripod replica with no mounting parts on IMA-USA.com. They're asking $230US. $379US for a complete one. They claim that there are no international shipping restrictions, but I suspect they're confused.

Oic so If I had one to sell I should get $400 for it that would be A fair price?

$400 is a fair price if original . I paid just over $200 for a repo kit from the US several yrs ago. As it was a unfinished kit ( had to weld the feet on the legs. lol) there was no restrictions on shipping . For someone who wants to display a 30 an original is a good choice . For someone with a semi 1919 that wants to shoot it a Bren tripod with adapters is a far better choice as it is much higher and you don't have to lay on the ground .
