New Carbine owner.
Hey guys, I just picked up my first Carbine. I was hoping you could help me figure out what I've got. I know it's an Inland, and I know the outside of the barrel has some rough pitting. The barrel bore is bright and shiny, but I think it's fairly well worn. I also believe it has a very old CAI import stamp, but it looks double stamped. I haven't had a chance to get some ammo or shoot it yet.
Thanks! -Trenton

Later production Inland with what I'm guessing is a Winchester Highwood stock. The flat profile to the bottom of the forearm makes me think its a Winchester stock. Pull the stock pouch off and see if there is a cartouche. Hammer is Inland. Trigger housing has been blued over park. Type 3 rear sight. Not sure from pics if it has an original type 2 barrel band or not. Overall a nice little carbine. Century import mark, not double stamped.

Can you post a picture of the escutheon nut, on the very bottom of your stock?
Any markings under your mag pouch?
Just wondering if you might have a WRA type II Hi-wood stock on your hands.
Not positive...........but this one may have spent some time with the Greeks.

Thanks for the input guys. There are no markings on the stock under the mag pouch. Here is a pic of the escutcheon nut.

The plum colored trigger housing brings Austria to mind. Did the Greek's metal treatment do the same colorizing?
