Got this White Bagger from PBI, tell me what you think so far. I have a few more items to get, but MaMa insisted on new Living room furniture. So after going last week to the furniture Store with her and spending lots of money, I have to slow down. Remember guys, when your married for 37 yrs like me, it goes in this order. Family, Food, and Furniture, then Carbines.

You bough the safety from me!
Bet you didn't know that!

Dave,
No, I didnt, at my age I cant remember what I had for dinner last night LOL, But I do thanks you for a nice safety.

You got your priorities all out of whack. You need professional help.

Very nice looking carbine. The high wood stock is especially nice looking.

Yes nice looking, couple of corrections-
Ser.# 442XXXX
mag. catch is type3, faint M and maybe CC.
Trig. housing is type2
Would look for HN hammer.

Scott

Hammer can be IN or HN, says Riesch, and I know a lot of his stuff is wrong, so I'm pretty sure I asked PBI about it. Some of you guys let me know,I may have to search for a HN. All these numbers drive me crazy.

Scott, you are right on Trigger Housing. Guess I got to writing too fast. I Catelogued all of my carbines on same day,eyes hurt. And the Mag catch is one I stuck in there. PBI has the correct one on hold to me a type MN.

IN hammers are Inland not NPM.

Ok, Brian thanks. Thats what I'll start looking for. And to answer Faulkner's question, I have the trigger housing that came off of the White Bagger, takes about 3 minutes to switch and the slide and Poof its bag to White Bag configuration. So in effect I can have it both ways in 5 minutes, any way I want it. The best of both worlds.

Any chance a NPM 4,1 might have been issued with a WRA frt sight?

Thx,
Charlie

Hey Rusty, looks like you're haveing fun with that resto. I like that you are useing two T.H. and keeping the one it came with seperate. Stock looks real nice, did it come with the bagger? If not what kind did it have? just wondering. Thanks.....Frank

No Frank, It came with a Pot Belly, and I have that in storage also. In effect I can show it both ways as a restoral when I'm finished, or as a White Bag like I received it. Only takes about 10 minutes right now. If I decide to find the front sight for it, it will take a bit longer, havent decided yet. Thats the fun of it, either way White Bag or restoration, cause like PBI said I am a hoarder, probably never get rid of it. All I do is spend and never sell, hardly.

I too could be considered a hoarder Rustship. I hung on to everything until last night when I put 29 carbine items on eBay. It was what my therapist told would help :madsmile: :dancingbanana:

Any links Bill?

Charlie

Think I found them........
broncowilly items - Get great deals on Collectibles items on eBay.com!

Bill, seeing that, I think I need to charge more for my stuff. :rofl:

Jim, am I out of line on my stuff? I thought I was pricing it to move quick and so far it has. :cool:

Bill,

I really have no clue. Not up on current prices. I had just found a parts box of some stuff and had been selling it for less, so was joking about maybe asking more. :dancingbanana:

I think they are worth whatever you feel you need to get for them. Otherwise people wouldn't be looking for them. :dunno:

Jim, I'll make it easy for you... Give you $50 for the entire drawer - and you don't have to tell me what the stamp marks are!

$56 ?????

I know you were Jim, $60.00 for the drawer?

You guys are funny. :thdown:
