The first center-fire long gun I ever fired was my older cousin's DCM carbine he got in the 1960s. It had some upgrades (Type III band and sight). I have looked at other DCM carbines, and they usually have some upgrades, though I saw one with a flip sight and Type II band.

My question is this: Are there any DCM carbines from the 1960s that are "un-messed" with that have all original parts?

The reason I ask is that I am weighing probabilities on whether my 1943 Inland is a bring back or if it was a 1960's DCM gun. All I know is it came to me from the estate of an elderly WW II combat vet, whose family said "he had it as long as anyone could remember."

I know I will never be able to absolutely say it is the holy Grail, a "bring back, as he may just as well have obtained it 50 years ago as a DCM weapon. It is 100% as it left the factory, though, so I was wonder if those of you who have known DCM carbines have any that are un-messed with. Inquiring minds want to know.
