I just came across an argintine 91 carbine, very nice wood, good bore, matching numbers on receiver and barrel but nonmatching bolt and magazine. The only other unusual thing I noticed is that the plate on the bottom of the stock (I would call it rectangular in shape except for the rounded egdes) is fasten to the stock by phillips head screws whereas all of the other screws are slotted. They want $350 for carbine. Sound fair? Thanks

the phillips screws are added on here,the Germans or Argentines never used these.I am a cheap and wouldnt pay for an Argentine 91 carbine with a miss-matched bolt.HOWEVER....if it is clean and has the crest-these usually do and you have been searching for years.....then buy it.Its just miss matched bolt and mag really hurt the resale by collectors that are getting more "Discriminating"in their purchases

Too much for a Frankencarbine
