I'm sure that some of the members of this forum noticed the very nice IP barreled action that sold for around $1850 on GB a few weeks back. Well, I think it has resurfaced (with "original" finish) on GB as "complete and original" for $8500. The reason, I think this is so is that the really nice original and the "new" original shared many of the same markings, I did not record the S/N, that would have verified. What I can't figure out is how the worn military finish healed itself to become factory fresh and original. I think that this seller puts out more "original" IP carbines than the Grand Rapids factory did during the war. Thoughts?
