Thanks for the response, so you are saying the MY Carbine is a true carbine. As for the stock, I know that can and will be a issue, getting a butt plate will not be easy. As for the sight, which one would be the correct one for my Carbine as I want to get it back as close as possible. Also what is the correct band for the stock as the one I have fits flush with the barrel. And how and where can I find the serial number data for the rifle/carbines?
