This is 3 of 4 carbines I picked up today. It is 1 of two M38’s that i got. It has some electro penciled numbers but i could not find an import mark. I’m not too thrilled about the non matching numbers but it is an M38 so i figured, why not…? It does have a very shiny bore.

Again... nice.. thumb1 finding one not force matched would be difficult. Mine is force matched and stamped.. but grind marks on the mag show it's forced.
