I think I'm going to have to pack this off to the carbine doctor but thought I would see if anyone has an idea here. My Rock-Ola Carbine is shooting about 12 inches high at 50 feet. Bent barrel??? Or something else to look at??

Your gunsmith will also look at the threads on the barrel & receiver.

Was the gun zeroed in B4 correctly?
Not a silly question - yea the rear sight is pushed all the way down.
Good luck.
It might have been filed down by a GI who had it. Or since it has been on the civlian market..
Look on the auction side, and maby others, for a front sight.
Email the seller and see if they will measure it for you.
You can sight along the barrel from the muzzle end (make damn sure the gun is unloaded before you try this!) to see if its straight or not.
Instead of a new barrel, I think you probably just need a higher front sight.
