My newest addition

RM, Paul is a good guy, likes to talk carbines and knows the subject. I will have to take time to attened a show that he sets up at. What a treat that would be! This I.P. going to stay the way it is. The stock is an unmarked birch pot belly, I thought it would be SA marked but can't find any stamps anywere. Everytime I look at it it seems to get better and better.....Frank

The excellent walnut potbelly I picked up on EBAY for my Inland, I thought was unmarked, but I see what is probably a faint SA where it should be along the front channel on the left side. I supposed need a minty matching walnut 4 rivet to replace my bull-nosed Winchester 2 rivet. The problem is, I like the deep channel in the bull-nose. It helps target acquisition.

BTW, way to go on those jumps, Frank! I took a freestyle Karate (System 4) when I was in my 30s and liked it. The back injury ended that...

OK all you M1 Carbine addicts if you want the greatest M1 Carbine DVD ever produced you need to let me know. I am fixing to have my tv station make some more copies. My email address is m1cc@msn.com and they are $23.00 that includes shipping. The dvd is around 3 1/2 hours long and very entertaining and educational. Just ask RUSTSHIP he has seen it but could not figure out what 42-36-1A was so I had to tell him. Man he could have won my collection but could'nt do it so I guess they will stay in my safe.

Email on the way! 42-36-1A Isn't that !A draft classification, lottery number 36, 1942 drawing?

Brian you are the tandem jumper or the video jumper? I new from your avatar that you are an exprienced jumper. It is quite the rush!!.....Frank

TR, I don't think I will retire, heck I'm doing all the things I use to pay for and now I get paid to do them. With all of your Military service I think you deserve those tax dollers. Now being your elder I want to give you some advice. I believe beeing active makes me feel like the line in George Strieght's song "Trubador", "I still feel 25 most of the time". So lets get up and move around. One more thing, it makes it easier to catch those red heads.....Frank

Brian you are the tandem jumper or the video jumper?

Tandem, A.F.F. I/E, A.F.F. Evaluator, Staticline I/E, Rigger, MFF I, about the only thing I didn't do was video. I've done a few but don't like the limited visibility with the helmet.

The best jump is a night HALO with combat equipment and O2, very peaceful

[frankderrico]

Thanks for the reply Brian. Yea, you sure have the resume. Got you on the vid helmet.....Frank

night HALO, combat gear, O2, and peaceful WOW. It's on my bucket list!!

[frankderrico]

PBI, high and inside, your not trying to brush me back are you?.....Frank

Paul, I love the "white bag" I.P.!! even though it doesn't have any I.P. parts it is a beautiful rifle and a fine example of the program of preserving the carbines for future issueing. Thank you for working with me on it.....FRank
