Title: Need help w/ paratrooper?
Post by: jswift on February 14, 2021, 03:02:26 PM
I have a paratrooper carbine I bought 30+ yrs ago, never shot it appears new w/ all matching ser#9007942. It came w/ two bayonets one spike and one blade both appear to having to be factory shortened. When I bought it was right at the end of the import ban. My question is what is the approximate value?  Thanks, Jim

I think Paratroopers are in the $550-800 range now assuming it has its normal 10 round fixed mag and depending on condition, matching numbers, original box and accessories etc. One with a stock cut for the blade and a shortened blade bayonet mounted is more unusual and would add perhaps another $100 for the right buyer.
