Thanks Guys!

Here's the deal.......I think I'm going to buy this gun unless you guys point out something out of bounds with it. He let me take it home with me tonight to clean it up and check out the bore. It looks just great to me! I snapped a bunch more pictures and have posted a link below.

He also showed me his Grandfather's service record which included the Spanish American War, and he also had some metals from Cuba. So, I think this may be a real find!

I sent an email with the S.N. to the Springfield Armory Research Service to see if they have any records to authenticate military use of this carbine.

Please......This has been an Awesome learning process for me. If anything in the pics. jumps out at you......let me know. There is a wealth of knowledge here on this forum.

Thanks!

Yes, it was a quick look, there is a much nicer picture up now - nice carbine sight.

It's a nice gun regardless of the stock and bolt bits. The bolt bits are 1892 but that's an easy fix.

"I think I'm going to buy this gun unless you guys point out something out of bounds with it."

Yes, do so. It's a nice carbine.
