Rare Original Irwin Pedersen W.W.2 M1 Carbine With Pretty Stock ITEM 3164

Item Number 3164 Category

This Carbine’s barrel date is 3-43. The carbine’s serial number is 1764164. This carbine has the correct Underwood barrel for the time frame and serial number. This barrel is in fine condition with a bright bore and sharp lands. The stock and handguard are correctly marked for I.P. The blued flat bolt and internal parts and the operating rod is coded for I.P. The completer trigger housing is coded for Saginaw Gear Grand Rapids which is correct as Saginaw Gear took over I.P. operations due to the fact that they could not meet the government standards for quality work and time frame. The sights are also correct for I.P. The magazine is coded for Saginaw Gear Grand Rapids. This carbine does show some service use and wear. The original finish would rate a 95% or better condition. This stock and hand guard show some really nice figuring! This stock has been oiled in the past to make the figuring stand out. All of the stock stamps and codes are fully intact. The original butt plate is also coded for I.P. The sling and oiler are correct World War 2  issue carbines. This is a very rare carbine to find in original issued condition! I. P. only produced 1/10 of 1 percent of the carbines produced during the war before Saginaw Gear took over. Here is one of the few original carbines still around for collectors to find.
