U.S. M1 Carbine by National Postal Meter
serial #4181321, 30 Carbine, 18'' 11-43 dated Buffalo Arms barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this third serial number block carbine retain about 95% original gray-green Parkerized finish with light wear on high edges and contact points, mild toning to brown under bright light on the triggerguard and operating slide, and a few light handling marks; the bolt retains similar amounts of original blue with light operational wear. The high-wood oval-cut walnut stock and 2-rivet handguard are in very good plus condition with a light scuff mark on the left side of the forend, a ding atop the handguard, and some light handling marks the concentration of which are along the toeline and base of the pistolgrip. The stock is clearly marked ''TRIMBLE / TN'' in the sling cut, and the right side of the butt shows a very faint ''NPM / FJA'' and Ordnance Wheel; the handguard is also properly ''TN'' marked. The receiver and barrel markings are intact and crisp and the appropriate parts are all NPM-made. The carbine features a milled adjustable rear sight, flat bolt, button safety, and a Type II barrel band. No magazine is included. A fine example of these desirable carbines.
