SOLD - Underwood M1 Carbine - March of 1944

1/8/18 - Underwood Typewriter Corp. made a relatively small number of M1 carbines for World War II.  This one is mid-war and falls in the 2.9 million serial range.  Stock has correct cartouche and inspector proof on right side, and is marked P-U (Underwood) in sling cut.  Low wood, small barrel band.  Correct flip sight is 'S' marked.  Excellent bore.  Wartime magazine is marked S-0.  Wood is in pretty good condition but does show some nicks and dings, which is to be expected on used M1 Carbines.  The receiver has a nice parkerized finish but the barrel shows some thinning and patina.
