decent shaped ones go for a grand. they were military trainer rifles and are getting more rare.
 
buy it.

i had a little bug this year to buy a 1903a3, then came across the OPs rifle, springfield M2 and thought it would even be a bit neater to have one than a "real" 1903a3.

google 1903 .22lr or springfield M2, or springfield 1922, you'll come across a whole bunch of stuff on it.

they are not cheap, if you can get it for less than 600.00 (judging on the pictures), i think it'd be worth it.

here's one that is probably in better shape, sold for $2,000 Springfield M2 .22LR for sale (932060772)

hopefully your friend isn't reading this thread....
 
thanks for the help guys i offered him 400 see what he says if anything pretty damn cool to hang on the wall or in my office
 
the guy who wanted to sell me the rifle got them from a buddy by the story i heard from my budy. guess the guns were stolen and the pics on here got the guy caught. man i would have felt like shit if i had someone elses rifle. im glad the guy got caught.
