Now I know it's Feb or early March.... I don't have the book in front of me, but I have a idea now. Thanks F4Rio

Your serial number looks to be 5653--- which puts it in the 28 March batch of numbers.

The OP's carbine definetly went through rebuild and it looks like a previous owner tried to correct it by adding some W coded parts. Enjoy it for what it is.

I sure will...A very Nice Deal...Very Nice Carbine to go along with that Bavarin RockOla I bought just a few days before the '44 Winchester...I really like this Carbine...and I'm REALLY going to enjoy the Colt I added to the Deal.

Note: Pics will be up and soon as it gets here. With the 5 day Inspection period Im not taking any chances and will have a couple of guys here that collect them look it over.

Just remember that the time from a receiver being stamped and a carbine being built could be from two weeks to two months.

I just received it....

I had a hard time posting these, but It did come in once it's get accepted I will be more happy. It's between this or the '42 Winchester.

Frank

Tough choice ! Can you have both ? LOL
