    Supply and demand - rare stuff appreciates, common stuff stagnates. An increase in the younger generation getting into milsurps (at a global scale) combined with the last of the big milsurp stockpiles drying up means their prices are rising. Even if there are still some stockpiles available, the US is suctioning them up and NZ and others only get resale from the US (after they've taken their cut).


    I wonder - would people pay the same for the CMP guns that are refurbished, rebuilt, with new stocks, criterion barrels etc? I would imagine that a lot of the Garands here were refurbished at least once or twice post ww2.
