I recently acquired a primo condition HK imported M1S90. It has all the goodies as shown, including an extra field stock. My question is, how much of a premium do these HK marked guns bring??  This isnt my only M1 but its my only HK marked one.  no box, or extras.  thanks

A factor you may wish to explore is the channel the firearm is sold.  Example, a 20 oz bottle of coke is sold for 1.89 at a grocery store, the same product is sold at a convenience store for 2.89, the same product sold at LAX is nearly $8.00.  Same product different channel, different expectation.  To often people look at gun values from Gum Broker.com, this is a uniquely different channel to market firearms.  Great for customer looking for a unique specific gun, not a great tool to find true used gun values.  

No changes were made from most Benelli models when Benelli USA started importing.  The nostalgia of the H&K import is unique however there are many factors to consider when appraising a used firearm.

I don't know of any Benelli USA ones that can ghost load. Perhaps there was a very small batch of the different types, but none that I have ever found. Not that I really use it when hunting or anything, but that is one specific reason why I look for HK marked ones. I usually then have the seller take a picture of the bottom of the bolt to see if shows 1 groove or 2. 

MrMilitaryPolice - This thread talks about it and different ways to achieve that if desired: 

Opinions differ, but from what I've been able to tell from GunBroker searches I've had on since forever (I think 2001 or so), it seems that HK Benelli's do bring a small premium but condition is a much bigger factor. Many don't agree Gunbroker is a good test for prices, but it's a real-time way to see what they sell for across the US. If one is looking for that highly unusual or rare item, it is THE go-to place. I've practically filled my collection with things I'd have never found locally. I have at least a dozen guns that I can think of off the top of my head that have a production or import run of less than 180 items that were all sourced there.
