I recently acquired this Carbine, and i am just curious as to what information i can find about it.
It is marked
Shilih Rifle Mfg Co.
Farmingdale, NY
On the left side of the receiver.
Serial number is
36xx
Barrel is marked
"Old Reliable"
Calibre 45
2 1/10.
Barrel is blued, and all other metal is Case Colored.
No other markings that I can discern, anywhere on it.
Any information would be appreciated as to when this was Manufactured, and general info of any kind.
