Hello, recently my aunt gave me a rifle that was my uncles fathers. Its an 1898 serial number 387xxx. Was given some good info from some people on the national gun forum and they steered me in this direction. originally I was just looking for some quick info on value to sell it but after reading a lot about it I am going to keep it. One guy said "I agree that you may have an 1898 carbine and it certainly looks cosmetically right, although the overall length appears to be out by about an inch, which could point to a Bannerman or later "conversion" Just curious if anyone has any more info.
