An IBM Service Grade carbine was auctioned off last Friday, 11/30 on CMP’s auction site. Listing #4700...serial #3889732. Winning bid was $2,701.00. Seems excessive to me. I couldn’t see anything special about this one except IBM had sub-contracted the receiver out to Auto Ordanance. Would this make it more collectible and thus more valuable? It also had a SA barrel dated 1/51 with an ME of 0+. I know CMP’s auction prices run high, but this one has me puzzled.

To me that's an 800 $ carbine at most. I don't like the SA barrel on it. With an IBM barrel 900. I didn't look at it, I'm assuming its just a run of the mill re build. Nice one on GB sold last week for 955 with an IBM barrel and IBM stock.

The same winner bought the M1A1 for $2500 the same night.
