I have one of these, and it is a tackdriver. You have to watch the knobs on the receiver peep sight, as they are kinda delicate (mine were broken off, have to adjust with pliers). Mine doesn't have scope base, so that was likely added by someone later. Don't know of a carbine version, mine has a full military stock with barrel band. Supposedly, these were designed to closely resemble the 03 Springfield. Oh yeah--don't lose the magazine, they're tough to find. There are replica's available, but not all of them would feed properly in mine--4th one I tried worked okay, luckily I had the original as well.
