The interesting thing about people failing to disclose serial numbers is if I have some historical reference to it, they'd never know.
Food for thought.
I don't have a record for your gun. It is very high in the second block of 1896 carbines though. As in "one of the last 1896 carbines made."
For $100 you stole it. The rear sight alone would make quite a return.
The "finish" on it is really worn. It would clean up nicely. Don't do that though - like coins, these should be left alone.

I'll PM you with it... I won't post it.
I'm a LEO.... folks will do stupid things. Getting Serials off the web and reporting firearms as stolen is one of them. Yes, it does happen.
Oh, I know about the value of the carbine. Hence why I snagged it for $100.
