			Here are some designer  carbines made by Navy Arms/Gibbs back fifteen or so years ago.  They probably have a collector value now the same as if they were actual issue weapons....the " No. 7 and tanker carbine". But....none are like yours.  These are .308.  Check out the magazine difference.

			Alas and alack, it turns out that they were photo shopped 
 
   
  
 , except the top one.
To make amends I'll get some shots of the real things.

			What is that top carbine?  It's not a standard Jungle Carbine.  You can tell by the stock.  Jungle carbines, as far as I know, came either with or without the metal cap at the muzzle end of the stock. No top wood half inch beyond the barrel band.
I top a snap of  mine for a post here one time in the past.
