Originally manufactured by Inland as an M1 semi-automatic carbine, this item was upgraded to selective fire operation by Fleming Firearms via installation of a set of M2 conversion components. Blade front and adjustable peep rear sights, with a "44" dated Inland barrel, type II barrel band, round "AI" bolt, milled Inland M2 trigger housing, unmarked hammer and sear, "7161837" sear bar, unmarked operating rod, transfer bar and selector switch, "SS" safety and "HI" magazine catch. The Fleming address has been added to the underside of the receiver, with a "2" struck over the original "1" on the receiver ring and standard heel markings. Fitted with a low wood stock with two-rivet handguard, "*U*" mark on the left side, "crossed cannons" on the right, "IO" in the sling cut, a green nylon sling and a steel buttplate. Included with the grouping are four extra magazines and a "G.&R. CO./1943" marked magazine pouch.

Fine as upgraded to full automatic, showing 80% arsenal refurbished parkerized finish, with some areas of gray patina, bright edge wear, and minor spotting and handling marks overall. The stock is fair as repaired, with brass pin reinforcement around the trigger housing pocket, and a number of scuffs and dents. Mechanically excellent. NOTE: This weapon is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, (BATFE) under the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 479.
