Thanks for the pic of the real one. This is the link of the current (swivel only) offering on eBay M1 Carbine Swivel Coded UP NICE!!!!!!!!! - eBay (item 130529879066 end time Jun-12-11 14:18:29 PDT) Even before seeing your photo, I was thinking the same as phillydude -- that the font lines were just too sharp and crisp for a 68-year-old piece, indicating a recent strike on what looks to be a genuine 1A swivel. Now that I see your real one, I can see the definite difference in font shape and line width. Modesto Menace strikes again!

Mike, your UP swivel appears to be in the white. May I ask the serial number range and barrel date on this one?
