Early Underwood stock markings

[Southforkroad]

Good day.
I have a question regarding the stock on my 1.37 M Underwood.
It’s a correct I cut stock, but in the sling well instead of MU, PU, RMC it says MARLIN.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

Yes sir, Marlin did in fact make stocks for Underwood M1 carbines in World War II

[Southforkroad]

Was MU the mark for Marlin?
Cause this says MARLIN vertically in the stock well.
Thanks
Chris

The earliest Marlin stocks made for Underwood had the word spelled out as you described; they are not often seen.

SouthFork,
Welcome to the Forum.
Does your stock have the large boxed UEF over GHD ? With CC off to the outside ?
Circled P proof on the bottom of the pistol grip ?

BTW.... We love pictures

I can’t figure out how to attach pictures...
But I can tell you the cartouche is GHD over UEF with CC inside a box.
MARLIN as photos above.
Any help with posting pics would be appreciated.
Cheers
Chris

There is a sticky thread above the normal thread you posted titled "how do I upload pictures to my posts for storage on Milsurps" by Harlan. There are a couple methods to do it and both are listed in that sticky thread. It's just about two or three threads above this one.hth, it took me a little while to figure out how also, but I find it easier using the go advanced method explained in the sticky thread

Also..
The hand guard only has a P stamped on the underside..
It went through an arsenal as well...AAP stamped on side.
Thanks

Does it matter if I’m using my iPhone? I’ve read the how to, but no go advanced option...
I don’t mind emailing some pics if someone wanted to post.

Southforkroad, I too am using a phone but mine is a moto Z2 play. Try using the medium page setting for this site because where you are using a phone it is probably automatically under the phone dial up mode.it took me forever to figure out that I could too post pictures with my phone as long as I was using the medium mode for the website.in medium mode the page you are seeing should turn brown and have a lot more ads and icons on the page.the medium setting is where you will see the go advanced button but you will not see the go advanced button if you are using the mobile dial up setting. It took me forever to figure that out myself but once I set it to the medium setting, it was pretty easy to figure out how to attach pictures using the go advanced option.hth. also you have to scroll down to the bottom of the website page to change the mode or settings for the website picture that you will be seeing
