This is a bring back late Inland in mint condition. It has a xx marked recoil plate screw, I better get that swapped out for a "correct" one :nono:

Original but it has the adjustable sights?
Yes, both the milled and stamped were used by inland after about April 1944.
The CC just did an update on the Inland serial number block that this happened in. It is letter#361
There is a great deal of sight info and specific ranges when things were used in this one.
Thanks again, Chris for another great Inland update.

Too late for me:-) But a Beauty!
I wouldn't. You might find out in the near future it is correct.Quote:

I wasnt serious about changing out the screw, i was just being sarcastic in reference to all the talk about correct vs original and so on.

Either way, it is a beautiful late Inland, technically the best carbine of them all. It looks basically new to me. I'd like to see more pictures of it!
I dont think this carbine has been fired much more than the factory sight in. It shows very little wear. I think this one was liberated pretty early in its life. It came with a like new stock pouch, two 15 round magazines and two full boxes of ammo from the same lot #, not to mention an Ithaca M1911A1.
