The original ones with the spring are very hard to find now. The pins were never marked so one for say Inland will work for Winchester. That is if your carbine was made before early January 1943. Anytime after that a standard pin works fine. Most of the standard supply houses are empty of these. You might check and keep a close eye on ebay.

What's wrong with them USGI ? I had very good luck with them several months ago. correct parts, fast shipping, and very nice people on the phone. :confused.

All I know was how fair I was treated several months ago, and I would buy from him again. his prices were not that bad, and of the several parts I got from him over a two month period were correct WW-2 parts and like I said before the shipping was fast. he also has a very good web site. that's all I know about him, maybe he has changed from 8 years ago ?

I was looking over some of the old post that USGI posted, there are many post that thought RB was OK by them, That he was polite, and that his parts were org. WW-2. all I go by is how I was treated and if the parts were org. parts, I posted some of the parts that I got from him here and ask members if they thought they were the real thing, "mag. release, front sight, rear sight, safety, frt. barrel band" to name a few, not one neg. comment from any one, only looks good to me. I did not say where I got the parts.
I do know there are some people that you can't please no matter what. and I have not seen any neg. post on RB, and it is so easy to pile on because of one disgruntled person who is having a prob. with his carbine to start with.
But, we all just have to do what we think is best for us.
