I found a Triggerguard for my NPM

[Bruce McAskill]

If your trying to match the trigger housing to be correct for your serial number then the N 9 is not right as it was used about spring time 1943. Your serial number would be closer to the end of production in April 1944. A correct one would be marked N 14 or maybe even N 16. As to your barrel band a type 2 band without the lug unmarked would be correct for your serial number.

Hello Bruce. Is there any documentation to support this? The guy who sold it to me cited a source that said the type II was correct for my SN. I am not a happy camper right now. Regards, Rick.

Riesch's book says that a type II trigger housing, and a type II unmarked barrel band are correct for your serial number. However, Riesch does not say what N# should be correct for your serial number. Bruce obviosly has the info that would tell what approx N# is correct.
