    Couple of NIW parts and you could fix that right up!

        Looks like it says :Working Model, M1 Rifle Cal .30 M1"

          Its not mine and it is quite impressive - but since its a scale of 2-1 - finding a place for it, even at a gunshow, is very difficult.

            LOL It is indeed.A friend has a BAR,the only way he could display it was suspend it off the ceiling on wire hangars.

              Very impressive indeed, I have only seen one other M1 cut away and it's owned by John Holbrook.

                Hello,
                Would you consider selling this piece? If you know if anyone with these training gun for sale, let me know. My son and I are trying to collect what we think is a leat four versions. We have the BAR. I think they also made a M1 Garand and M1 Carmine. I forget the name of the 4th. Thanks. Serge

                  I believe it's made of aluminum, in wich case the round would be about the size of a .50 Browning since the rifle is twice life size.

                    Yes, they are made out of aluminum.
                    I have the Browning 30 cal in the shipping/display case, M2 Carbine in the shipping/display case and a Garand on the display stand. I am looking for the BAR, Thompson & 45 pistol.
                    I have an incomplete Garand to trade, or sell?

                          M-16 A1 Cutaway

                          I am looking for a training cutaway of the M-16 A1. We used these when I was in the Army years ago. Does anybody know where I can get one? How much are they selling for??

                            Saw one 'in the box' with all the parts at a gun show several months ago. Asked the guy if he was interested in selling it. After he stopped laughing he said "no".

                              I have found an M-16 A1. They are selling it for $3200. Does anybody know if this is a reasonable price?
