This is my inventory listing I had of the carbine, I think it's pretty correct as to the carbine's description, Ray
A very early Inland manufacture carbine, serial # 13961, the barrel is dated 7-42. The carbine was made during the first few first months of manufacture of carbines probably about Aug - Oct 42. The carbines were not officially released for issue by the government until after final testing of Inland production samples was completed about September 1942. The carbine has all early type 1 & 2 Inland parts, including flip rear sight, full serrated magazine release, checkered safety, and the trigger housing retainer pin with the spring clip to secure the pin , unmarked 1st pattern sear. The stock is the early I cut high wood with the IO and a small Ordinance Bomb in the sling recess. A large Ordinance Bomb is on the side of the stock which was added about Oct-Nov 42. The hand guard is also stamped with an IO and ordinance bomb. Overall the gun is still in about Very Good condition and is complete with an original WWII period sling ink stamped S-S2, (quality hardware sling), oilier, and correct type I Inland magazine....
