How can you determine if the gun is original or a factory rework?

    I have obtained 3 m1 carbines through the years that I know very little about. I know there are books on the subject but I was wondering if there are any online tutorials regarding their collectible values. Does anyone know of an expert in the field in South East Michigan? Thanks, nneamos

    I'm looking to get an M1 and during my looking around I've run across several different manufactures (Inland, Winchester, Universal, Saginaw, National Postal Meter, and Underwood mostly) and some seem to sell for much higher prices than others. I was wondering if there was any particular reason for this like are some of them made better than others or is it more of a brand recognition thing since Winchesters seem to be the most expensive all the time?

    Thanks
