Is this worth the big bucks - when the seller said the rest of the gun is gone? This leads me to think the only thing you can do with it is make a fake reciever with the "correct" numbers (happened a lot with cars/engines in the 90's price craze) or assemble a mismatched gun - with what value?
Interesting historical part - but for that much $$?

Savage frames command $750, so why wouldn't an early Colt frame with IRA history exceed that figure? I wonder why GH want's to sell it now?
Mike,
There are torched 1928/M1/M1A1 receiver parts selling for that amount. Talk about useless parts! This may be an expensive paperweight/conversation piece, but at least it has some character.

I think the prices for complete lowers on Ebay have been more like $500+, but usually for excellent stuff.
I think this could be made to run, but on what? Why would you put it on any gun except the one it belongs on (not existing anymore), unless you have a near numbered Colt that is missing a lower....???
Ebay IS an interesting place - now just to watch!

SARCO is , and has been, selling complete 28 lowers for $750. The Ebay prices are actually better than the surplus wharehouse stores for that stuff. It's usually the M1/M1A1 lowers that garner $500. I betcha that frame would work the way it is on a 28 receiver. That is testament to the craftsmanship of the New England gunsmiths of the twenties.

I wonder what my Colt lower is worth, #12571, in about 90-95% condition, with all original Colt parts?
I am not looking to sell it, as I am keeping it for parts and/or maybe to put on a post sample upper I was thinking about finishing. Now THAT would be a Frankenstein gun: original Colt 21 barrel, original colt lower and post sample phil ord or something receiver. :-)

In this photo it appears that the knurling on the magazine catch and safety are positive. The pivot; negative.

Considering the abuse this frame has seen over the last 80+ years, it's not surprising it has picked up post 1921 parts.
John Jr,
I think there is more "deaf" in your version of "definition," but that is understandable considering the noise generating from your keyboard when your enter key got stuck.
