A couple of M1 Carbines

[Dump1567]

Ditto what shady said. The RS might be RSG, take an old soft tooth brush and clean it up some and see if the "G" shows up. That would be a Robert Irwin stock made for Saginaw. Take the mag pouch off and see if there are any stamps under it. The Winchester recoil plate is a little differant with the X on it. They show up on Win screws but I haven't seen one on the plate. Any idea ware Mr. Iverson may have got it from? DCM sold carbines in the '60's like for about $20.00.

HTH.....Frank

Tried to clean-up the area. No such luck on the G. I looks like something was stamped there, but it could be just a fluke. No other marks on the stock.
I have no history on the rifle and never got to talk to his daughter. I'm sure she's had it since his death, but who knows when he got it. Most of the info. I've found out about Mr. Iverson has been via google. Here's a business card that my dealer got from the daughter and gave me. I guess JW use to hand these out.


I don't think either one of these had been shot in years. Should I replace recoil springs? I also got some 30 round mags with the Quaility that are marked "made in USA". They actually don't seem that bad and have the bolt hold open follower. Anyone know who made these? I do have 6 USGI 15 rounders enroute.
