Does anyone have an original?

Does anyone have a non-original where they can post a photo of the serial number and provide barrel info?

I have IP 1771634 with an Underwood 1-43 barrel. If you need a pix, all I need to do is find the darn thing. Anything you are looking for?

BTW, I assume that was a 'put-together' job.

Just a quick addition to correct my previous note.

My BTW referred to MY IP. oops

This is a good thread. I'm thinking like this ..

1. Some, although very few, all I.P part Carbines, can be found. They have no Cartouches,
which seems to fit the evidence that none were ever accepted for military service.

2. I cannot see how S'G' would let such a Carbine pass through their hands without placing
S'G' on it somewhere.

3. On the evidence I have available to me, most I.P Carbines with a mixture of I.P and S'G'
parts do have a Cartouche and were accepted for service.

4. So .... the big question for me is how did some of these all I.P part guns, which were not
accepted, get into circulation ??

If I havn't explained myself well, I'll try again tomorrow ! Mike.Attachment 21188

My "white bag" I.P. #1781223 has an Underwood 8-43 barrel with a flaming bomb under the date and a "P" 2 3/8" behind the front sight. I'll get some pics up in the morning if that would help.

Original top half. RP flip sight the stylized M2 on the OSH the stick man holding the ball in front of lug. Was blued when I got it had it parked when I got it has 1-43 UW bbl and IPN front sight with round top 3. Has very small P 6 3/4 down from sight. Has the odd stamping on ring and rear bevel.

Should look like this. Am working on that strange mark on the ring. I know what it is, just gotta reduce the evidence to a pic. Back soon. Mike.Attachment 21088Attachment 21089

The odd stamping on USGICollectors receiver ring is the remains of a German or Austrian marking, kinda like this, someone has tried to remove it. Am trying to identify which marking it was, there were several of them. Silent in the Shadows from CSP will know, blindfolded !. He's hard to find however ! Mike.

Mike,
We had talked about this a long time ago, but it has not been tampered with. The edges of the stampings are still raised up from being stamped. I'm on my phone typing so the thread search is not availible for me to look up original thread and see when it was. I do believe that it is or European lineage on the stampings. Like I said above I messed with it by refinishing it from being blued.
