    Newest acquisition....have a couple of ?'s

    I just picked up an Inland that appears to be correct with the exception of possibly the stock, rear sight and slide. The serial number is 3,034,2** and the barrel date is 11/43. It has a flat bolt and type 1 barrel band and push button safety. The rear sight is a flip sight, but it is marked with a square style S on the left side. Not sure if this is correct. The slide is a type 5 with the angle cut. Marked as Inland, but again, not sure if it is correct. The stock is an early I-cut highwood with RMC in the slingwell and a large CC cartouche on the right side. I thought that I read somewhere that Rock-Ola supplied stocks to Inland, but I'm thinking that the serial number is too high for this stock. The push button safety is unmarked and the remaining parts appear to be correctly marked for Inland. By the way, using a CMPicon gage, the muzzle is slightly less than zero.
    Any additional thoughts?
