One of my buddies son-in-law contacted me saying he'd found "a gun" in a storage unit he'd acquired. As a collector/shooter of M1 Carbines, imagine my excitement when he texted me this picture-
We met post haste and it turned out to be an Inland with the hideous Blue Sky import stamp. Nonetheless, I traded him three crisp one hunnert dollar bills for it and he was thrilled, as was I.
It looked as though it had been in the storage unit for some time as there was quite a bit of rust.
It's your garden variety post-war rebuild with a mix of parts and an M2 stock. But it cleaned up pretty good-
It came with a 30 magazine full of Remington factory loads. I checked it at 100 yds. then moved to 200. It shoots just a bit over POA, but not too bad.
I'm gearing up to do some Parkerizing so I'll probably strip it and give it a fresh finish.
