They are definately mixed parts; early on late and vice-versa. The prices are at least 30-40% too high for what he is offering. Just because all parts are "Inland" doesn't make them correct.

There are plenty of examples of nice carbines available. Those pictured are nice carbines. One with correct parts though, parts are parts, as long as they're USGI parts I don't know I'd get all hung up on it unless you just want a collector grade carbine.Quote:

Well it has a wrong rear sight. Wrong slide and most likely the wrong barrel band. No way to know what is wrong inside too.

I only found one that had not been putzed with, it was a 7.27 Winchester and it took me a couple of days of studying it, and reading and then asking questions before I came to realize it was genuine.
I'd say well over priced and it looks like the stock has a crack behind the recoil plate. IMHO $600.00 would be it but that's me.Quote:
