Charlie I would lean towards Standard Products, made by Climax Ind. Co.,. They did supply recoil plates but the codes not be confirmed either.

Bill you are completely correct on a clean bore is a must and I'd also be in agreement in the use of Aluminum Oxide and Kroil if I had a bore that had corrosive particulate trapped under some copper...
The last thing I would use as a "cleaner" is a mixture of Aluminum Oxide and Kroil. Aluminum Oxide is an "Abrasive" we use to "Hone" cylinders and bores. All machinist know this, and use it, as an...
Bob, not a lot of info out there known about E Underwoods. PM sent.
There is no 2 over stamp on that receiver ring. All my 7m Winchesters are very lightly stamped, just as this one. I would take that bet.
pretty rough gun Charlie. I'm seeing a well worn gun that has been re-parked. Looking close you can see lot of pitting and the dings in the muzzle crown are a dead giveaway, under that new park job. ...
Where do you go from here? You leave it alone OR you're going to HAVE to refinish it. It is what it is, you're not going to magically find any Parkerizing or finish on it. You keep fiddling with it,...
Anton, Pics are terrible, under exposed and blurry. No way to make any reasonable reply or intelligent remarks. Request some natural light (outside) pics from your seller.

Looks like a good solid carbine that's been through a rebuild. Your not going to hurt it by shooting it and unless you're going to drag it thru the mud, normal shooting will not detract from the...
Anton, if $1600 was too rich for you.........wait till you see the price on a M1a1. Good luck
Anton, First off, the sellers pics are pretty good, i.e., no blurring or fuzzy pics. He presents it well, but how knowledgeable is he? The stock has obviously been sanded, and I'd question the...
Anton, this listing is already at $1325 and for all the issues, its already over priced starting with the sanded stock. And, that might not be the opinion you were looking for, but its mine FWIW.
Frankly I tire of seeing this over priced carbine month after month on GunBroker.
DaveHH, I had to laugh after reading the exchange. I don't even think Mr. Eastwood realized what he had said and meant no harm by it in any way. Pretty funny though. I find too many forums have no...
no "piling on" intended or implied Mr. Moderator. Read back the posts. My reply was directed to DaveHH. If I have to explain the humor in Mr. Eastwoods unwittingly funny response to Dave then you've...
lol......think you got a 'definitive reply'......:bash:
Humped. Appears to be the classic coat of cosmolin and 375 degrees in the oven. Inland never put that sight on. Too many punch marks on the outside, and how do you explain the inside of the sight...
If this sights been on there that long, I'm sure it'll sit still long enough to post some pics.
John,
I thought that s/n looked close to one of my Inlands, that would be s/n 194,727. Thats about 108 guns later that day than yours. Cant comment on your stock, but I will say, most likely...
Thank you Jim. My interest is in carbines and enjoy visiting your site from time to time.
