    There were thousands of companies making parts for carbine production. Not all have yet been identified but as a rule of thumb if a part has the letter I on it with another letter it most often was made for Inland. An example would be a type 3 barrel band. If made for Inland it would be marked AI,KI or SI. hth

    Atlas was a mistake I made about 10 years ago. I mixed it up with another contractor. The mistake was printed in the Carbine Club News Letter.

    The actual contractor was Apex Metal Stampings, of Brooklyn, NY.

    I am to blame for the misinformation. I appologize for the mistake.

  6. Thank You to Bill Ricca For This Useful Post:
