How about an "original" Inland

[JGaynor]

This is a bring back late Inland in mint condition. It has a xx marked recoil plate screw, I better get that swapped out for a "correct" one

In the ETO (44-45) field ordnance units swapped adjustable sights for the factory flip sights when the carbines came in for other repairs. I have a 47NNN Inland that was carried between the seats of a jeep. Once or twice when over eager passengers jumped in the back they stepped on the stock, breaking it. Upon being returned with a new stock the rear sight had also been replaced.

Im no expert on Carbines but are the round bolt and revised operating slide also correct for an original carbine in the 6NN,NNN range?

Regards,

Jim

I wasnt serious about changing out the screw, i was just being sarcastic in reference to all the talk about correct vs original and so on.

I know. The comment wasn't directed at you, just for general info.

On a 6,xxx,xxx, as in mpd1978's carbine, absolutely.

on a 6xx,xxx carbine the slide could be but not the bolt.

It has obviously not been fired much, but there is something about it I don't like. The sight base should have been adjusted so the aperture was centered after sighting in. It is also possible that the carbine is not sighted in at this point because the windage was improperly adjusted resulting in the aperture being too far left. Either way, it is a beautiful late Inland, technically the best carbine of them all. It looks basically new to me. I'd like to see more pictures of it!

I believe he has the sight cranked to the left to show the "original" sight staking.....Frank

Absolutely

Brian, a 6XX,XXX (six digit) serial number would be "original" with a round bolt?

[mpd1978]

It is a 6.4 million range gun.

Yes, however Brian answered with a quote:

And answered “Absolutely”

I meant on mpd1978's carbine, I edited the previous post to avoid confusion.

For a minute Brian I thought you were holding out on us Thanks for the clarification Brian.
