WTK Correct Inland Barrel Date for a M1 Carbine SN 226xxx.
Thank You!
I have an all original inland 155xxx and think the barrel date is 12-42 i believe (have to go dig it out to confirm) yours id imagine MAYBE 1-43?
Your serial number would date to about 1-43 BUT barrel production at Inland was around three months ahead of receiver production at that time so your serial number could have a barrel dated 11-42, 12-42 or 1-43 depending on what was in the bin at the time. Later in 1943 production of receivers did catch up to barrel production.
Thank You, Gives me an idea of the barrel my receiver needs.
OH,,My wife has a German Shepard like in your photo, they both outwit me!!
