    Here's a few pix of my S'G', the handguard and stock both show milling marks that can be seen in a couple of them. I've digitally removed the last 2 digits of the serial number from the heel.
    I came across this carbine at a show about a year ago. Just went to look for ammo but when I saw this and got a chance to examine it closely I couldn't resist. According to War Baby! it's got all the right parts and I cannot find any evidence that they're not all original to this Grand Rapids Saggy.
    PS - nice S'G', grits! Appears to have gone through nothing more than a light rebuild. A keeper!

    Maniac,

    Here's a link for a tutorial Doug ('Badger') put together.
    Use method '2' to upload your photos to Milsurps.com and you get the 'thumbnails' in your post.

    How do I upload or post images on MILSURPS.COM? - Military Surplus Collectors Forums

    Thanks guys, although the pix don't really do it justice. I plan on making a light box so I can take better pix in the future. It was interesting to hear that Trilux's S'G' has an inkstamp and milling marks similar to mine. Trilux, can you make out the digits on that stamp? It appears that whoever stamped the S'G' and crossed cannons on yours did so with great enthusiasm!

    Very nice, Curt but you're not going to tease us by posting just one pic, are you? What is your S'G' wearing for a barrel?

    Here is a link for a old photo album and yes I put a genuine C-tip sling on it finally, I think everyone here has seen this before. It has a 8-43 Buffalo arms barrel. All major parts S'G' all minors are IP.
