NPM carbine with an Inland barrel

[Truman]

I just picked up a very nice 1.9 NPM Carbine with a very tight Inland/ GM barrel. Could this be correct? Thanks Truman

Possible, but not probable. A few (51?) barrels were provided to NPM from Inland (per "War Baby"). Is there a date on the barrel?

5/43 Thanks Truman

Truman, check the barrel for NPM's proof punch mark which should be visible on the top portion of the barrel where the P marking is normally stamped.

Bummer no punch mark that I can see. Had my choice of several and picked this one because the MW was less than 1 . Oh well, a shooter it is. Thanks Truman
