Hello everyone, I'm new here. Thank you for having me.

I'm equated with a gentlemen that has asked me to try to find I for
Action on his 2 Spencer carbines.

I've collected guns over a 4 decade period but must say I've never dipped my toes into the Spencer carbine waters. I know absolute nothing about how to tell one model from another. I'm aware that some records are available for certain models. And I've read that if used during the war, there might be some method of tracking down info related to that - but that's about where I hit the brick wall.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

I'll follow this post with a couple pictures of each firearm. I have the serial number for one but can't make out the other guns SN because of my blurry photo.

Thanks all!

JSGWoodsman,

Send me a photo of the ENTIRE tops of the receivers of both Spencer Carbines that show the ENTIRE receiver top.  You have my email address.

Another option, remove the wooden forearm and the serial # also appears on the underside of the barrel for maybe a better look.
