WW2 1943 Vintage U.S. Military National Postal Meter M1 Carbine in .30 Carbine
** High-Wood Stock **
Description: This is a very nice U.S. Military National Postal Meter M1 Carbine made in 1943 during WW2. It has gone thru a U.S. Arsenal inspection/overhaul at some point post WW2 or during Korea, but retains it's original proper Underwood barrel and has been restored to almost entirely original National Postal Meter parts. The only parts on this M1 Carbine that are not National Postal Meter are the safety, magazine release, and barrel band. The Type III rear sight is proper for a late-production Postal Meter, but not for a late 1943 manufacture gun. The flat blued bolt, operating handle, trigger housing, trigger, sear, hammer, and stock set are all original WW2 production National Postal Meter parts. As you can see from the pictures, this M1 carbine is a very good looking weapon with the original parkerized finish in very good condition overall. It has not been arsenal refinished. The gun shows a consistent level of wear on all of the exposed parts and a very uniform patina. The bore in this carbine is excellent, mirror-bright with sharp rifling throughout the barrel. There is no pitting, erosion, or imperfections visible. The original high-wood stock set is really exceptional on this National Postal Meter, free from any cracks, chips, repairs, or major damage. The handguard and buttstock are a perfect match and are nicely marked with "Trimble TN" in the sling well of the buttstock and "TN" on the underside of the handguard. The right side of the buttstock has a nice visible U.S. Military inspection cartouche consisting of a boxed "NPM" over "FJA" (U.S. Military Inspector Frank J. Atwood's initials) next to a U.S. Ordnance Wheel cartouche. There is no U.S. Arsenal rework stamp or circle "P" on the stock. All of the stock hardware is intact and in great shape, including the recoil plate and steel buttplate. The action on this M1 Carbine is slick and precise, locking into battery smoothly and without any slop in the bolt. All of the controls are in perfect working order, including the adjustable rear sight and rotating safety. This National Postal Meter should be an excellent shooter in addition to being an excellent investment. If you have been looking for a good-looking and affordable WW2 M1 Carbine for your collection, here is your chance to get an example with lots of desirable features from one of the scarcer and sought-after makers.
