Gunbroker auction - 96 carbine
Posted: Mon Oct 18, 2021 1:32 am
Was following this auction with some interest, but not as a bidder: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/911348238
Looks like a pretty honest specimen at first blush, but the plot thickens - 78732 is an SRS hit in the first volume…as a 96 rifle…! Albeit, the VAST majority of nearby hits are 96 carbines.
Put-together carbine? Typo in the SRS database? Misread serial? Either way, assuming the parts themselves pass muster, not a bad price.
Curious to hear y’all’s thoughts.
