Thanks guys. I'm looking for another job. Getting laid off stinks, and this time of the year really stinks.

'butlersrangers', thank you for the info about the magazine cutoff! I was thinking it looked like it was original, and never replaced.

I'm definitely trying to learn more about the carbine, 'Whig'! It is such an interesting rifle, and good looking to. Where would be a good place to check out the s/n, and see if there was any info on it? I did just add an original cleaning rod set and oiler to the buttstock. After I get another job, I'd like to get a correct cartridge belt for it, even if it's a repro.
