Early U.S. M1 Carbine by Inland Division
serial #50069, 30 Carbine, 18'' IBM barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this likely 1942-made carbine retain about 97% dark gray-green Parkerized finish with some light wear on high edges and contact points, a few light handling marks, and hints of freckling here and there; the bolt retains about 75% blue with general operational wear. The low-wood oval-cut walnut stock and 4-rivet handguard are in near excellent condition as arsenal refurbished with a few light dings and handling marks, including a light rub mark on the forend from the sling hardware. The stock is crisply stamped ''Q-RMC'' in the sling cut, the remnants of an Ordnance Wheel on the right side of the butt, and a boxed ''SA / R'' inspector cartouche on the left with an easily missed ''O.G.E.K.'' stamped lightly under it, and the bottom of the pistolgrip is stamped ''89 / F''; the handguard is lightly ''W'' marked. The receiver and barrel markings are intact and clear, the bolt, hammer, and sear are Inland-marked, with the remaining marked parts made by a variety of contractors including Winchester and Quality hardware. The carbine features a milled adjustable rear sight, round bolt, rotary safety, and Type III barrel band with bayonet lug. Included with the carbine is a ''RUBON / K.C. 1942'' marked dual magazine pouch, two 15-round magazines marked ''OI B'' and ''IS'', a clamp-on recoil check marked with an ''F'' in an oval, an M3 flash hider, and a reproduction green canvas carry case marked ''SHANE MFG CO. / 1944'' in the interior. A solid M1 carbine from very early in production. (14A11810-26) {C&R} (1200/1800)
