Well lets see; looks like sanded stock, repro pouch, number ground off and replaced. I guess all this extra effort requires compensation! GK
I like the:
U.S. Cal. 30 M1 Carbine manufactured in October of 1943. This gun is not a put together. All the parts appear to be correct and original for a gun from October 1943.
It's only about a year and a half off for the serial number
I wonder if the barrel is dated that. It may have been re-barreled. I doubt the Austrian marked trigger guard is original as well.
Chris, maybe the barrel have been replaced to remove an import mark. Though they are in other places as well. I think he's looking for the newer buyer who doesn't understand the markings or features. Also stock appears to have a pin right side below the slide.
