[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 3002555, member: 18914"] Can anyone help me determine the pedigree (or the hybridization) of my M-1 Carbine? - Barrel is marked "Inland MFG. Div" , 5-44 -- Also has a "Blue Sky Arlington, VA" mark -- Has a bayonet lug - Serial number and manufacturer's name are obscured by the adjustable sight but the following is readable: -- S/N "2065664" the "5" may be in correct -- Manufacturer's name starts with ST several hidden character then a D, I believe that it is a STD-PROD name but can't be sure. - Adjustable sight is marked IR CO (international Register?) - Stock looks better than most 6-7 decade old stocks and is unmarked so I am assuming that it is a replacement but how can I be certain? - This carbine also has a metal heat shield which I have gathered likely confirms that the stock is a replacement. What can anyone tell me and/or what else should I be looking for? [/QUOTE]
