    With the acceptance stamp and having a serial number it means the carbine would not have been given to someone who worked there. Once it was stamped it belong to the government and they were not giving them out to people other then those in the military. As you said buy the gun and not the story. An original in very good condition would be in the $1200 to $1500 range and maybe higher.
