US&S Slide Value

[jbkf1003]

I have a Union Switch and Signal 1911A1 Slide. It's a replacement slide used but retains about 90% original finish. I was going to use it for a build but I want Novak Sights and a lowered ejection port. I can buy a Caspian already setup for this, and it'd be cheaper than paying a smith to alter this slide. I was going to post it for sale (prob on the (ehem, cough) CMP Forums), but I have no idea to ask. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Justin

I would love to have it Justin.

Thanks for the reply. I threw it up on ebay starting at $.01 with a $250 reserve. I figured I'd let the free market set the value. It hit the reserve last night.

Good for you.

My personal 1911 is a Springfield, mfg by the armory in 1916. Unfortunately it has a Type 3 Remingtonn Rand slide. At some point the pistol was customized and extended slide stops and safety were installed. I was bidding on a correct pre-WWI Springfield slide stop, I was out at $75, it sold for $127.
