    Audie Murphy's Other Carbine

    Some may have known about this, but the first I've seen of it.

    Audie gives his horse trainer a Inland carbine to protect his family during the Watts riots.

    Wouldn't one expect to see a large circle P on the bottom of the grip of the stock?

    I do remember reading about this carbine. I think it was on the Murphy web sight. Anything from Murphy would be history. Did noticed the sling swivel missing and wrong but plate screw. Stock looks like it was sanded. But still a highly collectable carbine.

    Best Regards…..Frank

    They describe the slingwell marking as number 10 and call the Bomb a number 8.
    Yea sanded pretty heavy.... lots of housing hanging out.
    And brass pin in frt right edge of hand guard.
    Still thought interesting.
