I always liked the looks of those carbines. Glad you got a replacement that satisfied you!

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: This was an Interarms butcher job market with "Interarmsco G33" overstamped on the receiver ring and on the (aluminum) replacement buttstock disk. Why Interarms chose to mark up the receivers of these otherwise excellent condition carbines with their own non-historical, made-up model names is beyond me. "Collectors" must have been gullible in the 1950/60s. I only shot this rifle once. I kept it for a while then sold it for a good profit. I should have kept the bayonet, but as it turned out my next carbine was an original Model 94, not a Model 94/14, which were made with no provision for a bayonet, so the bayonet would have been superfluous.
