4/30/21 - This is a very nice example of a Quality Hardware M1 Carbine issued to the US military in 1943. The barrel is dated 1943 and marked "JFFALO ARMS". The serial number is stamped twice on the top of the receiver. A bayonet lug and adjustable rear sight were added, likely for the Korean War. The stock is unmarked and was likely replaced and sanded. A full parts list with markings is included below. There is minor wear on the high edges of the receiver and minor thinning on the barrel. The stock is nice with minor dings throughout and two names scratched into the stock. Comes with one WW2-era magazine. The bore is excellent - shiny with strong rifling.
