I had to trade off one of my matching Ghosts (toward a Russian sneak) a couple of months ago, so when I saw this one on a local classified, I decided I should pick it up (especially at $280 thumb1). Way better than average metal and stock for a Sino-Banian, plus all-matching (including EPed gas tube/piston).

Wow... that's a great one!
You really can't go wrong here... not only ate they first year quality carbines, but they are loaded with history as well. A few years from now collectors who haven't taken advantage now will be kicking themselves in the face.
Agree.. that is a very nice looking one.

+1 -- I am glad I have my 2, I am holding on to them for that reason. Not that I would ever consider getting rid of them. But it would be nice to have a collector item.
Amazing find in that condition...whoever was issued that treated her well.
That's an absolute beaut Relic! thumb1 You don't see too many original stocks in that good of condition!
I don't know whether TGI sourced theirs from a different place than IO, but man it sure seems like I've seen nicer TGIs in much higher percentages all around.
Ol Relic that is SHARP looking! thumb1
Man...She is in beautiful condition. Great score thumb1 Even still has a lil cosmo left in the nooks and crannies. Great price as well.
I have a ghost that probably rolled off the line not to long after yours at s/n 57908.
Very nice, and twice so at that price! clap1
