48 bids at $2,825 and still going. Was hoping this would have been a sleeper with the false refinish assessment, but not so…Never a good deal on Gunbroker.

Wow. Both bidders must have read Bert’s review.

Trying to get to 5k. After a thorough review of the barrel markings, I convinced it’s a remarked barrel. The final piece of evidence, aside from the marking on the left side being slightly out of position, is a small remnant of the original caliber mark still on the barrel. Not easy to see but it’s there.

Here’s the pic. Notice the little piece of the dash that is behind the caliber

Here’s another issue. Compare the gunbroker gun’s marking position to a 1932 94 barrel in 32 WS. Look at where the markings are relative to the rear dovetail.

The top of the 5’s look a little bit too short and funky to me as well. If I were the winning bidder, the first thing I’d do is pull the forearm and check the caliber marking on the underside of the barrel. LSB has a 30-day money back guarantee.

I hope no one here bought it.

I came back to that final price and was like WOW… good catch on that sliver of caliber marking (dash) leftover. Sometimes I still feel like a beginner, but I’ve come a long way considering there are folks out there bidding on this kind of stuff.

Also, check out the ramp front sight on the subject carbine vs. this other very closely produced 1932 carbine in 30 WCF. Notice there are no grooved provisions for attaching a sight hood on the early first-produced carbines, but there is on the “38-55” questionable carbine from around the same timeframe.
Here are the links to both carbines:
