This thread is really making me want to give my Plainfield some company.

Does anyone know if the CMP will be offering any more Inland or Underwood service grade carbines?

How are the rack grade?

Inland receiver and 6-44 dated barrel, consistent with 5Mil SN on receiver (Apr-Dec 44); minty condition on the barrel and very little to no pitting on the receiver (below the wood). Replaced the Italian birch fat stock with a low wood stock with an I cut and IO stamping and replace some of he non Inland parts with Inland parts; the layout is typical of late war carbines with adjustable sights, push button safety and it shoots like a dream.

Not sure what CMP means so if anyone can spell it out that would be cool and thanks.

Here is my Winchester late 44'.

CMP is Civilian Marksmanship Program. They sell Garands, M1 Carbines, and other military surplus rifles to the public if you qualify.

Here are the requirements:

1943 Quality Hardware Machine Corporation;

All original.

Edit;

O.K, not a CMP carbine, but it's a peach. I also sold it last summer. A museum piece is wasted on me.

Re edit;

Here's my 44 Winchester. Also, not a CMP gun but it's a mixmaster and a shooter.

Since we like carbines I thought you guys might like this one. 10-43 IBM. Just the way my Dad brought it back in 1946. Nothing changed from the day of issue.

1943 Winchester, rack-grade. Replaced the stock with a nicer one.

Just a note about the CMP service. I got an Inland carbine and I was having trouble with it failing to eject properly, about every ten or twenty rounds it would stovepipe or end up with the cartridge stuck in the slide somehow.

I sent it back to them asking for help, and within one week, it was back by Fed-Ex, they had replaced the
slide, bolt, trigger housing, front sight, and barrel band. They had test fired it and had a handwritten note
explaining the work done.

Wow.

Here's the one I just received from the CMP a week and a half ago. It's a Service Grade Rock-Ola. It came with a Rock-Ola barrel with a ME of 2 and a Rock-Ola bolt. She was made in Oct 43 but has a FAT marked stock and a Rock-Ola handguard. Haven't shot her yet but I can't wait!

Recent Rockola rack.

Service grade Rockloa and Quality Hardware. I got lucky with both having Walnut stocks. The Rockloa has a FAT-marked Winchester and the Quality has an unmarked M2 stock.

They didn't believe in good cleaning apparently.

I have some mixed emotions about the Rockola. Personally I would consider this noticable or significant pitting. Then again, it's just the pictured spots.

Mine is a service grade Inland (received last week). The barrel is stamped 7-42 (the first carbines were delivered in 6-42, IIRC). THe metal and bore looked great. The wood was kind of ugly -- a birch FAT stock. I've since swapped the wood with a nice walnut stock I had on my beater Underwood, so now the gun looks practically brand new. But this is the way I received it -- after a wipe down with BLO.

That Rock-Ola never should have been graded a service grade with that much pitting. It looks like a large chunk of metal is missing from where the barrel joins the receiver.

If it were mine I would send it back; I've never seen a rack grade with that much pitting/gouges, much less a service grade. The rest of your carbines look pretty good.

Looks like " forging " voids-flaws not pitting. You don't see this very much on carbines, not unusually in certain batches of International Harvester Garand receivers and trigger housings. Seems aslong as it didn't affect the recvr structurally and were cosmetic they let them slide through ...

Usually these Boo-Boos are more valuable, surprised the CMP didn't cull it for the Insano Auction.... They could have tripled thier $.

IBM Service grade arrived today. The lighting is bad right now so I only took a few quick pictures using the flash. The brown stuff on the stock is residue from packing tape. I don't know why that would be on there.

IBM/AO receiver, IBM barrel. Serial number puts it at March 1944.

Not my CMP Carbine but I love it just as much.

1944 Inland Service Grade:

Picked it up at the NS last year. The muzzle wear gauged "0" and the stock has a nice NPM cartouche. I cannot get any more pictures as of now because I stored it with my folks up at my home of record in OH.
