John,
I have sent these pictures to Rick the Librarian through Milsurps cause Culvers was down.
I am looking to get an Appraisel on these two rifles as I am going to be putting them up for Sale and want to ask the right amount.
First is a 1903A3 that appears unissued and still in the box it was shipped from Raritan arsenal in 1957. the only markings on the stocjk that isn't factory applied (I think) ids the S S on the bottom of the Buttstock inline with the buttplate. other than that it appears completely untouched since it left factory.

Second is a Inland M1 carbine same thing... still in the box from Red River army depot mailed in 1960 but still in original finish and also appears to be in unfired condition except for some handling/ rack rubs etc... it is an 11/44 dated gun and I compared this carbine to a friend here's locally(his also 11/44 Inland) and it is virtually IDENTICAL in every aspect. including the different shades of Parkerizing on the oprod and trigger group etc. his just is in used condition (like NRA 80-90%) and has lots of rounds through it...

I know finding something like this is getting VERY uncommon and finding them in this condition especially is even more uncommon and just want a realistic amount I could expect from selling these either on here to a collector or listing them on Gunbroker etc...
Unfortunately I cant keep them as I like to fire my guns and these are obviously a gun to keep exactly like these are now and a serious collector would enjoy these in their collection.
thanks for any help you can give me.
Dan
