I just got a nice Six digit Inland post-war rebuild.

I finally fired the carbine. I went into the woods and found a safe 50 yard spot with a dirt embankment to use as a back-stop to shoot at. It ran absolutely Great! I shot a box of Kings Mill 1943 ammo. I only had one misfire (dead primer) The Kings Mill has been running 1 to 2 dead primers per box of 50. All primers, including the dead round, had nice deep dimples from the firing pin. Ejection was very even, with a nice pile about 36" from the carbine at about 1:30 to 2:00 o'clock.

The rear sight had been loose (a little wiggle, but nothing serious) when I got it, but I re-staked it in the original stake marks. I centered the rear sight, and set it on the 100/150 yard setting. I was shooting off-hand standing, with a few from a kneeling position. It was dead-nuts on at 25-50 yards with a 6 o'clock hold. I nailed every pop can and pine cone I saw dead center. It will be interesting to see what it will do at 100. With it hitting a couple inches high at 25 to 50, it should be close.

It is still wearing the high wood Inland stock, but I my run it in the Nice cartouched Inland M2 Pot-belly stock I got from a member here a couple years ago (Bill, Dave, Charlie, Jim??? I don't remember, Sorry!) Instead of the repop C tip I have on the high-wood, I'll use the nylon USAF sling on the pot-belly.

Anyway, I am happy to have a good looking, great shooter.
