Your carbine was made in Grand Rapids MI by the Saginaw Steering Gear division of General Motors. Appears to be from late 1943 to early 1944. Saginaw made roughly 293,592 M1 carbines and made receivers for others assembled by different manufacturers. If you look on the top of the barrel, about half way between the end of the stock and the front sight, you may see a small stamped date. If the date is there, that is when the barrel was made.
Between May 1943 and February 1944.
Your serial number was assigned to a block of serial numbers which ranged from 3,250,020-3,651,519.These serial numbers were given to Saginaw Gear(Saginaw by the U.S.gov. for production from May-1943 thru Feb.-1944.I hope that you find this info helpful.

it should say something about who made it, like just saying Inland Div. or Winchester near the serial number. From my research, it was made between March and September 1944 in saginaw tool and Die. If it was for sure not, maybe you should re-post the question or find a person with a knowledge of m1 Carbines.
It should if it fits on other kinds of M1 Carbines.
All military M1 Carbines were made between 1941 and 1945.
.30 Carbine
I think it was the National Ordinance company.
Not much, thinking it was made after WWII.
Are you referring to the M1 Garand, or the M1 carbine? A Garand can go anywhere from $500 to over $1000, all things dependent. An M1 carbine, generally, you'd be looking in the $400 - $700 range.
