Where these ever used on USGI M1's at anytime?

That is kind of a trick question. The answer I would say is No with a 99.9% chance, but some plainfields and IJ's were bought by some goverment agencies in the 70's-80's for some reason and I guess they could have. Some of these were sold by the CMP a while back as bbl/rec combos in the south store barrels of junk by the counter. But they were not a item in standard issue. Don't know which agencies bought them or what for, when they still had the WWII made ones in inventory, but it did happen.
