Been awhile, checking in... Rockola barrel on Quality hardware
Hello the camp,
Haven't had a carbine since last summer (first time since 1982!) when I sold my white bag Inland and a lot of other guns out of the safe because of pressing issues..
I have been enjoying my Mini-30 and Mini-14, but miss my little carbine. I was in my buddies gun shop and he got a CMP Carbine in an Italian FAT stock. It is a Quality Hardware with a Rockola barrel. Finish on barrel and receiver are close, both about 90% and are the aged, greenish grey parkerizing, rather than the bright grey or almost black of late rebuilds. Type III band and Type II rear sight. Did Quality ever use Rockola barrels, or is it a replacement as I suspect?
Anyway, trying to work out details to make it mine. I still have all my Carbine mags and accessories, and some ammo still. I have LOTS of brass and bullets to reload, too. I knew I would get another one.
