Is this type I band real?
I'm in need of a real RMC early band, but not that familiar with them.
I can't see the top, to look at how many welds.
Also looks as though the inner ring is recessed quite a ways back.
Any thoughts?
Got my hopes up.....but I can handle the truth !

Charlie,
Looking in War Baby page 399 they talk about a UR band, but under the contractors page 403 they don't list one.
The font looks a bit off to me. I don't see where this guy has sold other carbine items, low feedback.

Thanks Jim,
I see in Riesch that UR is listed...but it doesn't state on the band or swivel.
I see this seller has a few other carbine parts he's selling,
eBay Seller: clpp: Collectibles items on eBay.com
Maybe parting one out.....?
Thanks again

I think Jim is correct in that the bands were marked and not the swivels.

Hi Charlie,
Ebay has made the photos difficult to copy. I had to first save it as a MS word photo and some details are lost here. I'll send you a small pdf to your email and you can see better details. The ends of the lines are rounded and the left bottom leg of the 'R' has a round area the goes to the right.
It looks like it's been laser etched to me. Ask the seller to send you a jpeg so you can see for certain.

True,
The band on the Rock 0la I had was marked 'MR' and the swivel not marked at all.

The amount of recess on the inner band scares me.....without even seeing the top welds.
I appreciate everyones help.

Side view of the screw shows it is a fake.
