Title of my post, in which I ask:
Any ORIGINAL 6 digit Inlands out there with SQ S flip?
Inland 390755 with what appears to be original SQ Block S flip sight.
Meaning a REAL SQ S Flip Sight
From my notes on The Carbine Club Data Sheet:
Receiver: Rear Flip sight is the Square Block style S. It shows the type chisel stakes we find on right side dovetails on Inlands, but also shows fairly heavy drift marks on the sights base (both sides). I see no fresh signs of this rear sight being removed or installed. The bottom base between the dovetails has the same patina as the surrounding areas. I can’t say if the Sq S is original or a replacement from long ago. I took plenty of pictures of this area to try to determine if swapped, or if it could just be an oddity and original. Photo Link Included below
Other than the Flip Sight 'In Question' a PM-IP Buttplate, Type II RO-Q Recoilplate, a OI Type II Hi-wood that has been refinished and replacement S-HB Hand guard, This carbine looks very much correct per serial#.
