This one is just a heap of trash really, not worth owning, however there are two lessons to be learnt from it ..... If you can find a high wood one with the circled P on the back of the stock like this, then you are off to a good start. Many other things have to be right at the same time of course, and on this one they are not. Mike.

Here are some photos of a 12-42 barrel dated M1A1 carbine, serial number 123829.
The photos show the 'P' marking, the Ordnance crossed cannons and the numbers on the butt-plate, as well as the leather and rivets.

I hope that this helps.
Good luck in your quest.
