Something is wrong here....Why does a J. S. Richardson stock have an Inland/Overton stamp in the slide well????

jimb16,
Could you give a little more detail for those of us that are kinda new to the carbine, but are trying to learn ? I thought that Inland was the only co. that made the paratrooper type stock. what are you going by ? Thanks.

Because the pistol grip is a separate part from the long piece?

I'm still confused What's a J.S. Richardson stock and what's that got to do with a Inland folding stock ?

Jim, have you seen them any other way? Overton made the forearms, Richardson made the grips. Both of my late original M1A1s (6.35 & 6.37 guns) have the same wood with ordnance wheels on the side of the grip.

Here, read this site a bit... The U.S. Caliber .30 Carbines, Model M1A1

It is possible, but mine had NO IO stock markings on the stocks with the Richardson pistol grips. I 'm not saying it is not correct, but I am saying that it doesn't fit with my experience.
