Mike, If Ed wants to research the serial number here is a link. For a fee SRS will find out if any records exist on the carbine, & provide them.

I've used the service & had several that came back as issued to famous units in both the Civil War & Indian Wars. Some even came back with the Soldier's info (name, unit & such) which then allows you to continue the research through the National Archives. I have contacts for that too. The documented history of a firearm can enhance it's value greatly.
