Sub contractors and parts makers
I can't find a single one of my M1 Carbine reference books, and I have several.
Question, is there an online source to tell me the original parts makers for a newly aquired IBM. mfgd late 1944.
Thanks

This may help, you can plug in the serial # and it will give you a list of parts. Keep in mind that there are many different thoughts as what is correct and not.

If your looking for what manufacture supplied what manufacture with what parts, I think WB1 is your best source.

Probably Not
...and if so it may be an infringement on intellectual property rights. The people who research and document this information in a usable text format do so at some cost and expect to be paid for their efforts - and rightfully so. Just crediting an author while plagerizing him/her online won't feed the bulldog.
Go to Amazon and order a copy of M1 Carbines - Wartime Production, 7th Edition, by Craig Riesch, at less than $20 and you will have it in a couple of days and all of your questions will be answered (mostly correctly). JMHO
Edit. Guess I was wrong. I was unaware of the above referenced site.

Chip is right about the 7th edition. It's probably the best bang for your buck and delivers quick. If you have a question or 2 about specific parts for a specific gun, start another thread and ask it here.
Good luck Chris

The Craig Riesch book is great for the cost.
Better books, the "War Baby" series, offer a whole lot more but will cost considerably more dollars. All the back issues of the Carbine Club newsletters (39 years) cost even more at $280.
On line could be the future. Time will tell.
