    Years back a buddy of mine invited me over to inspect his Jungle Carbine collection. He had 5 Carbines all in decent condition. Every since one was a fake. Numrich Arms, Golden State Arms or whatever. He was very unhappy with my comments, but I told him the truth. There are fakes everywhere. Let the buyer beware.

    Can't really see what there is to achieve, on a rifle that is still quite low in value out there. To fake it gets you nowhere IMHO

    That would suck hugely...he was cross because he couldn't see it.
