NPM Carbines and Umderwood parts

Ewall,
Remember me saying to check wear patterns BEFORE CLEANING.
Take a look at this old post of mine, it will show you wear patterns to look for.
Mostly from page 3 on.
I try to do this at first tear down/inspection.
Harder to ID some patterns after cleaning.

This will also show scars from the original recoil plate impressed into the stocks RP seat.

FWIW,

Charlie:

Unfortunately, I was not on this site when I first secured my M1. Nor was I looking to become a collector. I wanted to replace a rifle I happened to sell 46 or 47 years ago for a shooter and a mild shooting gun to teach my grandson how to shoot. I did initially consult with a few collectors on the AR 15 Armory forum and they directed me to the Carbine Club and from there to here...

I read the suggested file and for the most part my National Postal Meter has come through quite well. I'll have to be a bit more deliberate in photographing EVERYTHING with my next M1. I still want a shooter as I will most likely be very careful with my early NPM.

Thanks for keeping me on the straight and narrow.
