1902 Carbine in 9 mm...

Well, the carbine has been re-listed. I am still going to stick to my $18,000 price.

I never paid a lot of attention to carbines before because I thought they were out of my price range. So I never differentiated between a 1902 and a 1920. But I have never seen a carbine sell below $10,000. Even at $10,000 or less, I felt that I would be getting a not-so-hot condition carbine. Just looking at the listing pictures, I think that this carbine is better than that. All the carbines that I have seen, that were in good condition, had a price in the $14-16,000 range. I recently saw a minty carbine at a gun show. But, at the time, I was looking at a minty, encased DWM Borchardt set with all the tools and six, non-matching magazines at the same table and I was distracted. For those of you who are curious, the Borchardt had a price tag of $18,000.

Does anyone know if carbines had a combined holster/stock rig simular to the artillery rig?
