    Saginaw from Legacy Collectibles what do you think?

    Guys,

    Legacy Collectibles has a Saginaw currently for sell. I was wondering what you guys think. Looks nice, maybe too nice. Very limited description concerns me. Please see the below link.

    Saginaw Gear M1 Carbine | Legacy Collectibles

    Your thoughts please.

    Thanks,

    320th INF

    Boxed SG and CC stamps are fake. Can't get my photobucket to work, but trust me on the stamps. Other pictures are just vague enough to show zero detail.

    Charlie,

    Thanks for your insight. The stock looks too perfect and maybe a little dark. The photos are poor to say the least. I do trust you on the stamps - could you elaborate without photos - I looked at Riesch and Harrison (I know about him) and really could not see what you already know.

    Thanks again.

    320th

    Actually I briefed thru all their carbines (except the troopers) and most all the Cartouches looked very iffy. Except that I cut WRA, that boxed WRA over GHD is legit along with the CC, I have 2 earlier versions in that serial range. I'm on the old laptop today, it won't let me pull pics from photo bucket, but I could at a later date if needed.

    That boxed SG and CC exactly match the repro (I prefer-Fake) stamps they were selling on Ebay years ago.
    The G has a too tall a profile above the cross - of the G. Much like the smaller versions that George uses on his fake flips.

    I'll try to find links in the carbine forum for pics after dinner.

    Little Later....
