I did not know they had any left!

That's the first Carbine out of either store in a long while that I have heard of { except for the auctions }. Hard to go wrong at $900. Hope you enjoy it. Chris

For a shooter I guess you did ok but from what I read on the CMP forum they are all reparked and CMP stocks. For $900 I would want an original finish carbine myself in GI wood.

Yea they put about 30 or so out. They also had IHC garands that were send backs.

Not without detailed pictures you didn't!

For an S'G' carbine in the IP serial number block you did fine for $900. People have to remember that it's not an import and even in CMP wood , that can always be changed. The vast majority of carbines have been rebuilt and refinished like this one.
