Interesting comment, makes sense to me. I have one of the carbines that was sold in 1961 for $20.00 including the freight and the paperwork notes that it was not functional.... but is perfectly good. I have a few nice original carbines but this one is pretty special because of the documented history. I'll have to take a 2nd look at the white bag carbine. I had suggested $900 and the seller thought I was crazy, and they might be right.
