I have been looking for a while. They were all over the place 5 years ago and then POOF! They were gone.

You used to be able to get good solid units for 250-500 bucks at auction. I don't know what planet these people are living on but none of them are worth a quarter of what they are asking.

Thanks for doing the search though, always nice to have others help in the search. Those were my opinions, TJ may think better of them.

The prices have really gone up. I traded a Ruger 10/22 for mine.

I store my GPW/MB/m151 parts in one. I have been using it for 20+ years, it has never leaked and its outside. I have not done anything in terms of maintenance. When I got it, I used a crane to put it behind my fence on two p-treated 4x4 (on cement pier blocks). It has not moved since.

My plan was/is to make it into a small camper. The biggest barrier to the camper idea is finding a new home for the crap I have in it now.

They are very well built and I would really like to find another. But, there is no way I would pay what people are asking for them.

Thanks all. I scored one on GL that has all the bells and whistles I was looking for. Now I just have to get to Chambersburg and pick it up....One of the few depots I havent been to!
