Russ The Red Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 When I was a young kid in Oklahoma (50's) the local Army Surplus store had these stacked in barrels selling for $10. The school I attended was built on an old rifle range and we would pick up spent and misfired bullets which fit these carbines.

I have 2 of them and decided I don't need both.
Cyrus Cassidy #45437 Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 Hahaha I already have one of these, also a 5th model. But I would trade you for that one if you're taking trades (not my Burnside, something else. What are you interested in?).
