    Not just any old carbine. An 1896 SRC, serial #775XX. According to some this puts it in the range of the Rough Rider guns?? Stumbled on to it in an estate sale auction.

                      Found it on an on line auction for an estate sale. With tax and buyers premium the cost came to just shy of 1400 beans.

                          Gotta throw a few down range. Bore is not pristine, but shootable.

                                      Nice example! I bought an 1896 carbine from a downstate Illinois PD that was selling their Krags and bandoleers of ammo to buy shotguns for their patrol cars. Later on I bought an 1899 carbine at an Illinois gun show. Both gone now.

There's no possible way that CGN members marching alongside the Pink Pistols in the SF Pride Parade can do anything to dispel the stereotype that gun owners are conservative bigots clinging to their guns and bibles. Not a single person in the crowd is rational or reachable because the parade's for gay folks and it's in SF.

                                              Nice find! I picked up one several years ago. Mine is a rather rare 1898 model.
