Looks like a M1 bolt in it. Serial number area is definitely ground down http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif - look at the reflections. Of course it could be the Rust-O-Leum paint fooling me.

 

Anyone know anything about this gun?

I can't wait to see what this one fetches. I'm surprised the finish wasn't described as 90% with only minor flaking. The pistol grip looks nice.

 

So I'll ask, what's the fair pice of this one? http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/smile.gif

Under what circumstances would that number be ground off? Since he has papers, the tommy shouldn't be hot, right?

Hey! Price check....

 

It is down to $12.5K! Maybe if I wait a few months it will be below $10K!

Bummer dude! It ended again with no takers. Maybe $10.5 this time. If so, do bid me up. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Looks like the sn is 37550, which would make this an M1 receiver. The bolt could have been replaced with an M1A1 bolt and the receiver would have then been restamped with the A1 designation if it was done as an arsenal rebuild. That part of the receiver is blurred in the pictures. I also don't see any inspector stamps (WB or GHD for AO). These should be on the left side of the receiver which is shown in the pics. Anyone asked what the story is yet?
