Because of the incorrect replaced top hand guard, I could not observe a C.....I am sure, at a glance, you will know what it is....I don't know for sure....I have veered out of my lane....Last picture is for Dick....It was taken thru a glass door....The gun library was over whelmed, it was the closest I could get to them...One of them had a ram rod....enjoy.....regards....alex

Rifle. Carbine graduations go to 20. Where the "18" is on the rifle it'll be "20" on a carbine with a "C" on the other side. Base will have C also but the ladder needs the "20" and "C." For what it's worth there are rifle sights out there "refinished to carbine markings" by the hopeful but (so far) untalented.

Hand guard is lumber.

Myself I'd pass at that price. Finding rear sights for carbines is hard. The 1896c rates nearly impossible.
