Centerfire has Howa Carbines.

Centerfire Systems has a batch of Howa Japanese made M1 Carbines for $529 DELIVERED. I am not an expert, but that seems way cheaper than i have ever seen. They have Type II bands and the Howa rear sight. FYI. If I hadn't just picked up a VZ58 7.62x39, I would probably get one.

1 1/2 hours after your post and they are already sold out.

Wow. I posted as soon as I got the email from them! I figured it was a good price!
