Thanks Inland44....I been sending out pictures to some collectors and a few more people that I know that own several of these and do know it was because the placement of the Sight covered the S/N. Why would they do that to this one when you can Clearly see it with the Rear Sight it has on it. It tells me this Sight came on this Carbine, but what kept them still marking the front side when they made the adjustments to show the S/N with the original milled or stamped Sight and then new placement of S/N for it to be seen. Who knows....I wish I did.
