Friend of mine just got this for $600, which is a great price for a none import. The barrel date is underwood 5-44, going by the serial number in the picture I'd say it is wrong, but I'm not too keen on Quality carbines yet that's why I'd like some input. Also, does it look like the muzzle was recrowned ? And what arsenal used AAY ? Thank you gentlemen, and I use that term loosely lol

AA would be Augusta Arsenal. I'm thinking the Y might be the inspectors initial.
Yeah that confused me because I couldn't find AAY in any of the books,
I would guess the barrel should be about a year earlier for that SN.
I think their contract was canceled by May 1944.
I know, and his serial number is in the first of the 4 blocks assigned to them, I I figured it should be a very early 1943 bbl
Dang ! That's a $1000. maybe $1200. gun where I live. Chris
Easy ! It's a sweet Trimble high wood stock but I didn't see any cartouches.
Beautiful high wood. The NPM cartouches sre so easily removed. Hard to find good ones.
He just sent me pics of the stock,tell me what you think about the Trimble tn , thanksAttachment 53141Attachment 53142Attachment 53143Attachment 53144Attachment 53145Attachment 53146
It has me convinced. The pic of the slide channel shows just a little different detail on the high wood as it transitions into full thickness going toward the tip. That's all I see that would make me want to look closer. I'm not an expert.
