Thanks for the reply.
I have contacted the seller to see if he can read the s/n more clearly.
The rear site is removed and a replacement dovetailed in the barrel.  The front site removed and an over the barrel ramp type inatalled..
There is a rear sling swivel inlet in the stock
The finish sucks.
I'll have him measure the barrel?
I can probably get it for 450 or 500 but I dont know if I want it that bad.
Still, it is a carbine??
He says its a rare on of 2000??  I am trying to find more info.
I have the pics he sent but cant attach here.  I could send direct to an e-mail adress.
