[QUOTE="jbrentd, post: 2810798, member: 24925"] They definitely aren't as pricey as the other MN carbine models (such as the M44, M38 or M91/59), but T53 prices have quickly risen over the past few years (just like most milsurps). Who knows if they'll be "collectors" one day. The one I bought had a horrible stock, no parts matched, no cleaning rod and not a lot of blueing left. So, I didn't feel bad about refinishing the wood. Still doesn't look great, but it's better. At the end of the day, it's your rifle. They are fun to shoot...fireballs and all.
