I received my CMP update today and saw that they are now offering some M1 Carbine stripped receivers for sale.

Two questions:
1) From a functional standpoint, are there any substantial differences in the quality of the different receivers? There are wide ranges of prices but I'm unclear as to whether this related to quality or quantity/collectibility.
2) If I bought one of the receivers, what would be a good source for being able to purchase a complete kit to build up the carbine? Furthermore, is this a gun that is "buildable" by a DIY'er?
Ok.....technically that was three questions
