    I would give you the same answer even if I didn't know where it came from. At the price of lumber, you need to know what you're looking at.

    777, you already know the answer to your question!

    I guess it's real, in that it physically exists.

    Now that's one I have never seen before. The revolvers really bark, i'd imagine this one is pretty bad too. Let alone semi auto :) Attachment toward the front may be a weight or port to counter the...

    It's a genuine USGI flip sight for sure, and it certainly does look original to the carbine (in my opinion).

    I think the type 1 band doesn't fit this scenario though. AFAIK by the time Winchester transitioned to adjustable sights the type 2 band was in use.

    I am always amazed at how different pictures can look. RR, definitely avoid a brush or anything like that. Bore cleaner should soften it but will take some time. I am at the point now, I clean them...

    Rear sight is USGI. I think some sharper pictures of around the staking would help. Unless the rifle has really been detail cleaned and it's seen some use, you will see dirt, grime, oil residue...

    If you have a close up picture of the receiver dovetail both sides and staking it should give a good indication if the flip has been on since it left the factory. Usually they are coded base and leaf...

    I don't think you'll need to worry about a 9 spring cut on that trigger housing... It looks very nice and legit as Mr. 777 points out. How is the flip sight marked, base and leaf?

    I keep asking myself if inflation is really this bad. I bought my first NIW mags at a gun show ~25 years ago for $5 IIRC. They were all over gun shows for $10-15 for years.

    777, those are nice boots... Seems like each lot are 1 size which might make them harder to sell unless you're a bigger player. Not bad sizes though. Many lots of them for sale, will have to see...
