    Check out the machining on this Inland trigger housing - Type 1?

    This eBay auction has good clear pics, but doesn't show everything. Do you guys think the machining is a bit unusual? Could it be a Type 1? Thanks! - Bob

    Was thinking I needed to see the front to determine if Type 1 - wrong! The wide rear wall gives it away as a Type II. Still, the machining is different from what I've seen. - Bob

    Any guess as to what it will sell for? Maybe $150 or more?

    Well, I can see that my guess was way off! Still another day to go. - Bob

    Here's a completed auction on a rear sight that surprised me. Do you think the buyer will try to repair that receiver? - Bob

    Looks like they put a new guy on the milling machine.

    Being pretty didn't make it function any better and as long as it functioned properly who cared what it looked like so it was used. Carbines when it was made were listed as critical. But your right it does look a bit ugly.

    It's going to go for a good price. Maybe a little rough, but looks honest to me - neat that it's not been "blasted" and reparked. - Bob

    The same seller has a highwood Saginaw stock that's at 530 right now. It has well defined type 2 or 3 barrel band marks too. Makes me want to sell my Saginaw highwood that doesn't have the wider band marks on it.

    I asked him to post a pitcture for the top. It's got both dogleg and straight hammer marks. I my opinion, this is a 150 to 175 dollar trigger housing all day long. I don't know what's going on with it, except some stupidity.
