I posted two pics of the carbine on GB U.S. Weapons Forum. I will remove the wood and take pics of the markings and parts later when there is better light.

The NPM serial number is 1975705 and I am pretty sure the barrel is correct. There are early features on this example ; type 1A barrel band, flip peep sight, high wood stock, flat top bolt. The...

I entered the serial number on the web page for trapdoors. I was pleasantly surprised to get a phone call the next day. The SN# is for a carbine made in the last quarter of 1888. Probably went to...

I went back to a local shop to check out a Trapdoor carbine that came in as part of a collection. It is SN#413495. It is in a lighter colored carbine stock that has the butt plate with sliding door...

I do know that there are differences in quality between early and later Essex frames. I just don't know the serial number range that determines early or late. Evidently if you buil on the better...

I am looking at an Essex frame 65xxx sn# range. It has an excellent Ithaca slide..complete. and a very good+ HS barrel. Grips are aftermarket walnut. I am not sure what the other internal parts or...

I am having second thoughts about the park finish. It looks more like the original finish turned to plum and none of the roll marks appear to have been buffed..still sharp and crisp.....but the...

According to the pics on CoolGunSite the mag is WW1 American Pin.

After counting the rows of checkering..one grip panel is Colt the other is Remington.

It has been around the block a few times. Serial number is No 577217, heart shaped cuts in grip frame. Unfortunately the US PROPERTY has been removed from frame. It has what appear to be the...

Hope these upload OK. There are some stains here and there that seem to be cleanin27118g up well.

I snagged one today. The SN#328555 seems to be 9/41. The barrel is SA 4-45. SA op rod is post war as is the SA bolt. The FCG is WRA. Rear sights are lock bar with rounded ends. It is sitting...

A friend of mine needed to make some quick $$ and I took a Springfield Trapdoor off his hands for $300. Model 1873 stamped on top of breech block. (P) cartouche but the cartouche on the left side...

daveboy..it's a doppleganger for sure..same hand guard too.

The pics are somewhat revealing. It seems to be in a carbine stock. No swivels or saddle ring. M1903 sleeved front sight and I cannot see the complete hand guard but it does appears to be humped. ...

I thought I might give a heads up on a carbine on the GunBoards Trader Forum.WTT 1901 Krag

I forgot to mention the smooth butt plate.

I have been enjoying reading past posts about these versions and thought I would just describe one that is in a local shop. 1898 Springfield Armory SN#447535. If Old Guns is correct it makes it...

In a local pawn shop. The SN#3042649 makes it 1941 if data is correct. The stock is a nice ding free walnut straight stock with two brass pins. Bolt, shroud and safety tab are R marked. ...

I picked up a shooter today. It is a Remington Rand No 923653. The o is underlined. FJA stamp, and US PROPERTY stamp are present. MSH hammer spur, take down lever, mag release and safety are...

A friend of mine has a very nice Inland that was a Louisville Police carbine. The interesting thing is the barrel. SA made in 1950 with the P and crossed cannons stamped on the barrel. I did not...

I have a chance to buy a Model 1898 Krag rifle and was wondering if any one might know something about the stamping on the right side of butt stock. C over SF over 10 over 10. The letters are block...

A friend of mine showed me a .38 caliber Colt the other day. It had a MR serial #suffix, a national match barrel marked with 2 stars but I do not recall an H or a W marking to indicate Hardball or...

The sn#3492942 puts it at 1942 but the two groove barrel is RA 1-44. The parts marked R are; R front sight, R nose cap (blued),R front band stacking swivel (blued),R rear band swivel (blued),R bolt...
