I decided not to actually modify it at all. it is still sitting as is, but a little cleaner. I have not shot it, being so original, i just couldn't do it, and now it is more of a safe queen. I did...

thanks. they are not M2 cut on the reverse.
Hi All
I cant seem to find the LK and RK hammers in my reference book. any thoughts.
I put an IK in there for comparison. not sure if they were converted or such.
Hi
I just expanded my bayonet collection. Previously it was a turkish mauser bayonet as my only bayonet.
I have expanded over the past couple of years to this...

Thanks for the compliments and history, it is pretty interesting, and i am glad i picked this one up, and at a fraction of the price of the pristine ones RCS mentioned.
Note: removed pictures,...
Thank you for all the compiments and observations on this rifle. I noticed the extra B on the bolt, and if you look above it, there is also a cut off 4 visible too.
I probably wont replace the...
thank you. does anyone know if the lend leases show up in the SRS index?
When i was waiting for it, i was told the brit marks were on the left side. i hoped that meant behind the op rod, so on the...
the heat lot is B6.
The stock is a long channel with slanted clip latch cut and i think it is a "4" in the channel.
Hey guys, my new garand just arrived. Serial is 426956. it has a 12-1941 barrel with Brit Proof markings.
It looks original, except the rear sight pinion may be a later type 2. i cannot take off...
I have the serial newsletter #357, and it should be 11K instead of 10K, my error. estimated range 940000X to 951000X
according to the carbine club, the lowest reported is 940,600X, which would make 950,600X the supposed highest. they must have scrapped some, or shipped some extra just incase any failed inspection.

This looks like the highest X suffix marked inland in the 900K serial range compared to the CC newsletters.
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...
I think this one has a good list of items for a game of "I spy"
WW2 Early 9-42 Inland M1 Carbine Hi Wood I Cut ! : Curios and Relics at GunBroker.com
hercules, you wouldnt mind with a picture, do you?
How many of you have actually come across the NHTE hammer for NPM?
i have only seen 1 in the past 3 years or so on the auction or gunshow scene, or forum.
That is my white whale
is the catch EI or WI? i do say late 42 inland, early 43 (jan/feb).
since we are on this, i have an inland 88K, that needs a catch, will it matter on EI or WI for the serrated catch?
The 0 in front of the serial number usually means its a modern repro. the repro's sell for about 400 for a new one.
originals, depend on condition and range up to about $1100 on a bright sunny...
ebay actually lets you report counterfeit items, i wonder how many times you could report that stock, the cartouche stamps and everything from riverbank before they penalize you
I have also been burned by their descriptions. they dont know the difference between a blued bolt, and a parkerized bolt.
they sent a black parked bolt
it looks like a legit stock that has been cleaned up, but real cartouche
