Possible Underwood Carbine Purchase

[USGI]

The front band does look like a "cut down" to me - inner piece extends a bit? I think the import mark is Arlington Ordnance. The Op Slide is an Inland. The bolt is a later Underwood replacement - that's the reason for the all Underwood internal pieces. Underwood produced a lot of those bolts and they're still seen for sale at times. - Bob

Bob would these bolts be completely assembled replacements that were just dropped in or were they shipped stripped and the parts transferred over?
I'm not noticing what you're referring to on the band. Would that be on the swivel or blank side?
