I just did a very quick search and it looks like they might be in the Beaverton area. It appears they've been at this for quite a few years. - Bob

Thanks Bob, soooo much to learn.

He has sold more carbines then anyone else I have seen in years. He has sold a lot on the Auctionarms site. He does get top dollar for his carbines too. He does post a lot of clear photos of his auctions which might help his sales.
S'G' with orig I-cuts are hard finds, other then the rear sight abuse it looks orig as sin, I would hate to have to buy that stock on epay, it might bring half the present bid, it would make a lot of IP owners wet their pants
Looks like you can see type III band marks on the barrel.
Marcus I am wondering about the slide on the S'G'. Serial number would have been what no later then September 1943? Should be a type 3 slide then and not a type 4 as pictured? Type 4 slide was used in late fall 1943? What would be your thoughts?
I did some business with JTD a few years ago and never had any problems so unless something has changed I would trust him.
I think is possible
I wish this S'G' had it's own thread instead of mixed in here with the WRA. I'm wondering about the locating hole in the trigger housing? I know that it gradually changed to a partial hole and later disappeared. On my 1829xxx, the hole is still partially open. Mine has the Type 3 S'G' slide. How about that UI front band? I don't think the original WarBaby! showed the U that's on mine, but my sight hasn't been off, so I figure it's original. - Bob
