    UN-QUALITY M1 Carbine photos

    I went to the Salem Va. gun show to help a friend buy an AK-47. We didn't find him an AK but I found this old UN-QUALITY M1icon Carbine. What do you think of it ??

    Does the barrel date 3-44 fall into the time frame? My understanding is the US&S receivers were delivered late 1943 and first quarter 1944.

    Looks quite nice. Does it have any cast parts? Trigger, sear, or hammer?

    What are the markings in the sling well? Looks like an old cartouche under the smaller one.

    QHMC's are know to have a circle around them. I have a couple with it and there have been a few COM's that also have that feature. Cartouche looks good to me.
    Wtmr, you know a thing or two about UN-Quality's??

    I haven't had time to tear it down yet. Front sight is EU marked. Stock has Q RMC in sling cutout. Rear flip sight is GE-Q. The seller said it was all Quality inside. Price was $2250 and I got it for $2000. Seller said he got it from a Greensboro NC policeman.
