Inland barrel dated "7-43" with fixed blade front and two leaf flip up rear peep sights, type 1 narrow barrel band, high wood stock, and two rivet handguard. The trigger group is milled with an unmarked, smooth push button safety, and unmarked magazine catch. The bolt is the correct early style with a milled flat top and blue finish. The stock is marked with a circled "P" on the end of the grip, and "IO" in the sling cut out with a checkered steel buttplate. With green canvas web sling.

Very fine. 80% plus original dark parkerized finish remains with some edge wear and cycling marks, and patchy spotting and light pitting on the barrel. 90% original blue on the bolt. The wood is also very fine with numerous small dings, faint markings, and brown patina on the buttplate. Mechanically excellent. A solid representative example of a Word War II configuration M1 Carbine!
