There is a place online selling M42A1 covers for the M15 tripod for $12.95. The one I got was NOS. There was another online vendor selling NOS in the foil wrapper M164 scope cans as well.
Last lightly used late issue M49 I saw sell locally went for $100 with half a M15 tripod, no M42A1 case and a M164 can missing the shoulder strap.

Interesting to see sealed contents. I'll have to check, but I believe the box my scope and accessories came in was of different dimensions.

In the 1990's DRMO auctions, I used to go to the one at Great Lakes , I bought all kinds of stuff there, Bought 2 Complete M-49's with cans and tripods with covers, one had "FBI Evidence" tape all over it with the serial plate removed, Also bought 6 USGI Small arms repairman's toolboxes for cheap, There were about 500 people there and it was an open bid auction, Bought them because the pallet weight was 1275 lbs, --All the tool boxes were banded quite heavily to the pallet and you couldn't open the drawers--Got them all for less than $150.00-- A couple of bidders were laughing at me for paying so much !! These toolboxes were packed full of USGI ordnance tools and gages, for the M-1 Rifle , M-1 Carbine and M-14--Jackpot ! Still selling stuff from those boxes today, regretably only a few headspace gages let and M-1 and M-14 Field Test bolts-- Still left and available !
