Lots of photos of the 5.4 Inland

No, the stamping looks OK. I found a picture of an identical Type 2 band posted by member Matteo last July. The band marking on the 5.4 Inland I saw looks exactly like Matteo's. - Bob

You will see that there isn't a problem with this band on a 5.4 Inland. It is the most comprehensive report I've ever seen and will answer any questions you may have.
I would also ask myself the question; why would someone put a $250 Rockola band on a common Inland?

Sounds like the carbine I've been looking at is correct and probably original. I thought there might have been a hint of a Type 3 band mark on the barrel, and that someone had possibly switched it back to Type 2 - The front sight and pin, etc. look nearly perfect, though. Like yours, it has the TH with the hole on the left side, and a PI marked Type 2 rear sight with correct staking. Thanks! - Bob

Nice carbine. Looks like the one I have.
