Who cares what you paid for it , they are like hens teeth. HOME RUN! Don`t let this one go, you won`t find another. You are a lucky dog

I would love to own it, Im just partial to type 1 barrel bands, I know type 2's are correct on carbines of this period, but my collection consists of all type 1's, though Id make an exception here..if I had my way, Id only collect type 1 stocked carbines! I only have 1!

The rear sight is 100 percent , the stock, every thing, Did he (the seller ) say any thing more on the policeman , how he came about it

I too wonder a bit about the barrel date as in March of 1944 QH was into the 4.78 range according to the March 15th testing program.

un-quality vrs. quality hardware numbers. Carbine of the month, newsletter #365. UN-QUALITY #4,458,855 also has an Inland barrel dated 3-44. It's serial number is only 1,195 away. So definitely close to known original.
