"Peoples Republic of China" started to copy the US M-1 30 cal. carbine after WW11,This rifle was manufactured at the Mukden Arsenal in Manchuria.in 1949 after the Chinese revolution with the Chinese Nationalist.

After looking at the pictures a few thoughts........

Is that Hi-Wood, a home made / carved stock? Kapur ?
Flip sight GI (?) installed backward or China made with no Dished out Peep side?
See Receiver rails by the locking lugs at the front of the bolt, Looked Bowed / Bulged to anyone else?
Would YOU fire this?
