IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, AND 100% CORRECT WE HAVE AN EXCEPTIONAL EXAMPLE OF A VERY EARLY SECOND CONTRACT PRODUCTION RUN INLAND MADE M1A1 PARATROOPER CARBINE. THIS IS A STRAIGHT UP ORIGINAL GUN; IT HAS NOT GONE THROUGH A REWORK AND IT IS NOT A RESTORATION. THIS WAS MADE IN JUNE 1944 A MONTH AFTER PRODUCTION ON THE SECOND RUN BEGAN. IT STILL HAS THE HIGH WOOD STOCK FROM EARLIER PRODUCTION BUT IT WAS PRODUCED WITH A ROUND BOLT AND TYPE 2 SIGHT. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL STAKED IN SIGHT FROM INLAND, IT IS NOT A LATER UPGRADE.
