    It's a nice story. But you would be buying the carbine. And even if it was in original condition it would not increase the value to $12K including someone's current idea of a presentation case and the other items.

    I don't think a veteran bring back, or it would not have been refinished. Did someone buy a carbine, find out who it was issued, research that person and build a collection of items around it to sell?
