Dates missing is what I recall now. Like on the late 5 mil Inlands with the I-BR stamp.
Wonder if this particular barrel stamped 8, may be a reversed 3 or possible worn stamp like posted about above?
Remember seeing a few in the serial range above where both the bottom and top of the barrel had the Inland Div stamp on them.

The guy was supposed to either bring the Inland with the '48 marked barrel to a local gun shop, and/or give me a call. I stopped by the gun shop this afternoon, and he hadn't heard from the guy yet, and neither have I. While I was at the shop, I picked up a couple of Type 1, 15 round mags to add to my collection - an IA and SY-B. The Inland mag is a little odd because the exposed portion of the follower (at the front) has a horizontal gap in it. I remember reading somewhere about an improvement that was made to the followers in early production, but did a little bit of research tonight, and couldn't find it. It seems like it was in WarBaby! - somewhere?? I'll let you guys know if I get to see that barrel, but I'm thinking it has to be a '43 that was stamped lightly, or with a worn die. - Bob
