    Gun show find

    I found a Jungle Carbine at one of the local gun shows this morning. It is in a No. 4 stock that has been cut to look like a No. 5. However the rifle is a real No 5. I purchased it knowing what it was wrong with it and brought it home. I broke it down and sure enough it had the lightning cuts. Then I looked at the receiver info.

    Manufacture: ROF (F)
    Date produced: 7/44
    Serial: A 999

    I was super excited to see that! Pictures to follow. I thought it was amusing when I saw the way the sight was installed, I am sure the gentleman I purchased this from used it as a hunting rifle, he took care of it as well. It has nice clean shiny bore. No erosion especially here in the humidity, no rust either.

    Now to find an original stock, any idea as to where to locate one for 'ol A999?
