    Do you intend too shoot this little carbine? If so, you are in for a real treat.
    Ah right, thank you for that information, Granted I am no history buff! And yes I am planning on shooting it one day, hopefully. Though I will get it checked over by a professional gunsmith before I do so since there is pitting on the outside of the barrel (Mostly small patches but there is one somewhat large pit hole).
