Good price for an Inland M1 Carbine?

[gwalchmai]

Is $300 a good price for an Inland M1? Wear looks very good and the bore is clean. Anything obvious I should look for? It was brought back by a guy's father from the Big One, he says.

Grab it and run, you may feel guilty later though.

Bought it. Inland, 888xxx s/n, made 9/43. Slick as a button.

Went to the range yesterday. Indoor, so I could only go to 25 yards, but even with my old eyes I kept all the rounds in a 2 inch Shoot-n-See dot. A couple of misfeeds out of 50 rounds, but they may have been my fault.

I picked up a sling and oiler for $15 at a gun show today, along with 2 GI mags in a belt pouch.

Does anyone know what the sight elevations are?

IIRC it's 100 yards and 300 yards on the older flip down sight.

100 and 300 yds on the old sights. these were the first sights that came from the factories. I have an old inland division that is worn but servicable and is a tackdriver.
Good luck with a great value and a fine weapon.
