jim c 351 Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Tim,If the gun in question had a receiver that was made at the same time as the barrel (FEB 44), then the receiver would be an M1 with a 5 million serial number range.In other words, not an original M2 , but an overstamp done by someone between 2-44 and 5-86.A person in search of a true M2 probably wouldn't want this one.JIm C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n64atlas Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Mine is closer to M2 timeline than that one. It's an overstamp, but not a true M2 even though it is in the right serial number range. It was done by Rock Island around 1986. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim c 351 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Tim, The short answer is a almost yes. However, 5K is a good price whether for a kit gun or for that matter an over stamped M2. The gun in question is stamped M2. So right there it must be a registered receiver. If that gun was in my state and I could examine it in detail I would likely buy it. But as it is ,its out of state, no pictures, long wait time and I don't absolutely need it so I will pass. It may be a good deal for someone, but not for someone who wants an original production M2.

Paul in PA Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I emailed the seller, and was willing to drive to Connecticut to see the M-2. (Have family I can visit) No reply, either swallowed up by a dealer or ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
car wash chris Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 I'm thinking it's a scam, too cheap and it's had way to many hits not be marked SOLD. I e-mailed him on the 2nd day and still haven't heard back. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
