Correct recoil plate NPM????

[colreed]

My SN is 1515447.

I've been given an Aug/Sep 43 born-on date.

I know Riesch says T2 until 1540000 and Ruth says T2 until fall of 43.
The reason I'm asking if it could be a T3 is because this carbine came to me almost completely correct. It has a T3 coded PN (NPM) recoil plate on it which perhaps could have been orginal if the dates in the books are off just a little bit.

Does anyone have any refined data to indicate some confusion for this part so that a T3 might be correct?

As always, thanks for your input.
