    Gun show find

    No time to post a picture yet, but I found a good deal yesterday. Went to the OGCA show in Wilmington Ohio. Found an early Inland 5 digit S. N. It's been altered, but still has a lot of original parts. Front sight doesn't appear to have ever been removed. Barrel is dated 7-42. Still has the type 1 barrel band. Looks like the original flat bolt as well. Even the slide is a PI marked type 1. The rear sight has been replaced with a milled adjustable, but has not been staked. Trigger group has been switched with a later SG group and the stock is an M2 type, but for $750, I don't think it was a bad deal. And it is still original finish. A little rough, but what the heck! You don't find early Inlands at that price very often these days.
