Hello Guys and Gals
I was wondering if anyone has heard of a 30 cal carbine made by Arlington? They are brand new in the box, and suspposedly all they say is Arlington, made in USA. And if you have heard of them what is whole sale or what is retail. And are they any good? I sure could use a answer as soon as I could get it. Thankyou beltfed.

  Arlington is an importer. They manufactur nothing.
  I suppect that you may be talking about a M-1 Carbine-re-do?
  If so, collector value is zero. Perhaps a carbine on a "IMA"
  receiver w/ chinese parts? Value is zero. 101

  Or, it could be a Blue Sky Korean import (they were located in Arlington, VA).
  
  New in the box? Made in USA? I'm dubious. I wouldn't mail anyone money until I had the chance to hold one in my hands.
  
  But, if you really want a .30 cal carbine, look at a used USGI or a new Springfield Inc. Yes, they will cost $500, but don't expect anyone to make a new carbine for any less.
