Somewhere north of $1000.00, possibly 3-4 times that much depending on condition and other factors I'm not sure about. You might try contacting Numrich Gun Parts and see if they're buying. [http://www.gunpartscorp.com/]

No dewatting needed in the US - it's a spring operated.

I went through the process maybe 2-3 years ago. Really rusty/relic ones go for $700-900. I think I got around $1500-1600 for mine - mint with canvas accessories and training tray.

You'd be VERY hard pressed to expect more.

Gunbroker is a good option.

I agree with Scotty. These are interesting weapons but for whatever reason don't seem to command big dollars

Possibly more demand for them in UK/Commonwealth countries than the USA, but then you get into import/export issues.

Fancy a meeting at the border?

Cheers,

Adam

Yes, the higher number was based on UK sale prices. Sorry, should have said!
