Who made this T2 band?
This Type II band is on my 4.927 Inland. Could it be original? Who made it?

While we're waiting for others to respond, I found these (2) older threads on bands with similar markings. - Bob

I posted that the double slash was used on late Inlands in that second thread in 2012. I'm not completely sure that I was right - now just trying to get more opinions. I remember something about it on the old Culver
forum. Those were the days, eh?

From looking at CCNL 361, it's unknown who made the single, double and unmarked type two barrel bands. Of course that article is 5 years old now and new info may have came forward. From clicking on the above links, I think a reference is made to the same article.

In my Opinion It's Original just like it was in 2012 from looking at the thread Bob posted. I wonder if the maker of this Type 2 BB also made the Double Slanted Slash one along with the Single Slanted one and each one went to a different M1
Carbine Manufacturer. I've seen a couple of the Double Slanted one's on IBM's For Sale. But don't know if they were strickly for IBM .

Just Spit balling Here. I think this Type 2 BB Marking is miss stamped and should be more Slanted. I thought these were straight up and down, but War Baby, Harrison or Riesch doesn't list Inland using them nor does USCARBINECAL30M1.COM. IBM and RMC are shown using them. They show up in M1Family.com under Inland, but most or letter marking T2 BB's, but these could have looked straight and was put in the list. I just been going through websites everywhere to try to find out who made these Type 2 BB's. Who knows y'all have seen MANY more Than I have. I just been looking and searching the internet to see where it says Inland used these Straight or Slanted Double Line Marks. I don't have access to the Carbine Club Data and Information.

I can do some digging over the weekend, I have only seen the double slash marked T2 BB on IBM's so I just always seem to reference them as IBM. That doesn't mean they weren't used by Inland too.

Inland used at least five sources for their type two barrel bands, although I'd say it's a possibility that whoever made the single / type 2 band may have made the double // too.

I agree with you...I was looking to see if I can find it and perhaps find out who made them. This friend has one on his Carbine but it's definitely not as nice looking as the one pictured above and the marking is Slanted a little more.
