    ROCK-OLA CARBINE, CARBINE CLUB REGISTERED-100% : Curios & Relics at GunBroker.com


    Should the barrel be dated?

    Every Rock-Ola barrel I've seen was undated

    It might just be me but if I was going to sell a carbine such as this, I would take a detailed and quality set of photographs. These photographs are horrible at best. The old story of "it's not my camera", "my wife has the good camera", "my dog ate my camera" are all just a load of malarkey. Poor quality photographs are an easy way to hide details you don't want seen. Even cell phones take better pictures than these.

    So do you think he is selling museum pieces? Like excess stuff? Maybe to help fund the museum? Curator huh? Now I think even less the photographs. He should now better. There are some interesting pieces he has for sure

    "Registered" has no meaning in relation to the Carbine Club. The owner may have sent in a data sheet, just like many thousands of others. It proves nothing more than that he can lick a stamp, yet he says it at least twice (my eyes gave up on the acre of all caps). I must be special since I'm "registered" in the phone book.

    Well it ended unsold.

    Maybe his museum does need funds. It says non profit.
