Every picture I can find here and on completed Ebay auctions show the style of the letters like pictured here and the left one above.
The C, K, 2nd O, spacing between the L and A stand out different to me.
The cross in the A also stands out.
Also no sign of the small Ordnance bomb on the barrel near the slide rails.
I won't have time to pull out my own RMC barrels until this weekend.
May just be me......... But I'm leery of this barrel.
EDIT: Thank You JimF for your Picture help

Looks like a bad fake to me. But what do I know? I've only been collecting these things for 25 years.
When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

Hi Jim.
Well that barrel was Import marked and hooked on to a rebuilt IP receiver.
Sold for $2526.00 plus shipping.
The price of IP receivers have gone up !!

At a recent show, saw a mixmaster IP sell for 3k. Serial number was 1.77 something. Didn’t get a look at the barrel. Had a bayonet lug, adjustable rear sight. Not sure if stock was original but it had a boxed P above the wrist. Seems likes a crazy price to me but buyer stated it was the only maker he didn’t have. Also said an original one was too much and he wouldn’t know how to tell anyway

I do agree the fonts did look different on that barrel but my question would then have to be would there really be a fake R-Ola barrel with Import Marks?

Hi Wayne,
Thought about that myself..... Import marked.... ?
Font different.
Odd gas cylinder... that looks like it was freshly soldered.
Could this barrel have been pieced together?
Is that even possible ?
Thx always appreciate your input
