Through sell selling and trading, I got a REALLY good deal on a nice mix-master 6 digit Inland, serial# 254690. It has an Underwood barrel with ordnance bomb " -44" date (no month). The ME is "0" as the bore and crown looks mint and the M2 ball round shows a full 1/4". Since I want this as a shooter for carbine matches and such, this should fill the bill
It has a "AMCO" type III band, stamped rear sight, Type II stamped front sight, Type IV brazed trigger housing, flat bolt, and early slide. I'll do a break down later. The finish matches overall, probably from the post war rebuild. At first I thought it was black dullite, but it is more an even dark grey like I have seen on some other post war rebuild weapons.
The stock is a sanded, intact High Wood "IO" with a trace of Ordnance wheel cartouche on it. I did not see a rebuild cartouche on it, though. I think I may put it in my cartouche shooter potbelly stock and save the high wood.
Pic tomorrow. Today is Mother's Day, and it would be death to haul it out today!Information
