This is an example of a late war production Inland M1A1 carbine with Inland Division barrel dated "1-45", unmarked blade front and "I.R.C.O." marked stamped adjustable peep rear sights. Type III barrel band with bayonet lug, flat bolt, toggle safety and "M" marked magazine catch. Mounted with a paratrooper stock with 2-rivet handguard, low wood forearm, faint markings visible at the end of the pistol grip, and folding wire buttstock with leather cheekpiece flush fit rivets and checkered cast buttplate with the correct cast markings of "B 257614 3". Includes a green canvas web sling. Importer marks are present under the barrel

Fine with 75% of the thin arsenal gray/green parkerized finish. Displaying areas of edge wear, cycling marks, light spotting, and small dings. The wood is good with handling marks, a few small dings, a vertical crack at the back of the stock, and markings mostly gone. The wire stock is good with a missing portion of the leather at the top of the rest, small dings and light spotting on the metal components. Mechanically excellent.
