Spot welding on top of receiver? Rear sight replaced? Welding repair to staking of later sight? Looks fishy...Ive seen this done before..Need better pics..Barrel markings arent crisp, like parked over, mine is dulite blue..or is it pics? Andy
If you look at his feedback, he just bought this Carbine from Sam-T-Bob for $2,052.00 on Sept 28th and is already re-selling it.

Buyers remorse or a switcher roo?
Jim, great catch! It looks good from the pictures but........
Butt plate (2 words :D) looks wrong. While pattern is "diagonal", its dot density is higher than shown over on the Chestnut Ridge site for early Inland
JimF4M1s,
Both left HAPPY FEEDBACK after the sale.
How is it that the new seller here has access to some of the exact same pictures used in Sam T Bob's original listing?

I had posted about a RMC that Sam T Bob had listed and sold a while back.
He and his partners are becoming the east of the Mississippi version of George.....

Buttplate looks OK per War Baby (Underwood has the higher dot density of the two diagonal types). CCNL #333 shows the slingwell cartouches as correct for the very first Inlands made. This stock for this serial number should have IO and bomb (could be with or without flame streaks). With only three months between these two stock markings, it could be OK, but with all the other suspicious attributes, who would risk it. Picture copying is simply a matter of right click and copy. You can verify they are the same pics by right clicking picture, then clicking Properties. File sizes are identical. File name could be the same or he could have saved the pics and put them on his own hosting site - too big a jumble of characters for me to look at.
Doesnt the bottom right rear area look like it was heated, as in weld?

The maximum diagonal length I count on this buttplate is 20+ dots. I can find only 16-17 corresponding dots in pictures both in WB (and on CR's site). There were more than 2 manufacturers producing diagonal butt plates. Here's a pic from the CMP boards which appeared a while ago. Guess who is who:

I've seen other diagonal patterns on ebay but didn't save pictures :(
Saving my pictures, eh? JK
To me, there are a lot of west coast specials on that rifle, besides just the heat treatment/reweld on the sight base. the color on the receiver in front of the repro sight looks very bad as well.
The barrel band looks repro, the mag catch, safety, hammer all look repro to me. stock is refinished with type 3 barrel band markings too
