I appreciate this mans service, along with his brothers.
But included in this 'offerings' are copies of the correspondence between the gun seller and the brother of the carbines owner, even includes the post office receipts for postage (?) and pictures.. etc and the celebration events the brothers company put on for OK City festival.
I'll admit I just can't see through the smoke and mirrors well enough to concentrate on the carbine.
Just reading the description was more effort than I put in to my senior year of High school.
As Cali201 in post #5 stated, if your looking for ~$13,000 to ~$15,000, I have to wonder what Audie Murphys' carbine is worth?
That might be an idea...... If a museum donation can be used as a tax credit, maybe he could pitch it to one. He does have the display case ready.

P.S. Custom built home? I worked on them for over 35 years. Seen some incredible money spent on 'personal taste' !!
