Calling all 1902 carbine experts

[Kwmpa]

What's funny is I actually spent $1600 on books have been reading for months and I'm still trying to piece everything together about carbines....then when I ask what to look for when buying I get jumped on because I wasn't specific enough...makes me not want to be a part of the Luger community...I'm not looking for info handed on a silver platter but I know there's several experts on here that can give me a list of very specific things to look for but it's like that info doesn't want to get shared which is what I thought a forum is for...sharing information for the greater good

The forum is about sharing information, but you did not ask anything specific.

You asked what to look out for. All Michael and myself were asking for is that if you have a specific question, that is much easier to answer.

And NO, this is not a very well researched variation by very many members (very few collectors of these anyway)
