Winchester good to very good.
SN# 1,155,***                  More pics of Winchester good too very good. SN# 1,155,*** Type 3 Winchester slide. Looks like the one prior to the November 18, 1943 change where they removed .040" from the inside of rear slide.   Winchester flate bolt with puch mark "proof". I don't know if web is under extractor as I'm not taking bolt apart yet. Looks like type one firing pin and I think curved /flat right bolt lug. Type 2 or 3 extractor. Looks like two bevel cut ejector?        Winchester trigger housing group with type one dog leg hammer. Winchester trigger, flip safety      l   Winchester barrel with flip sight. It has a weird w on barrel I can't find a "p" for proof, but it has the flaming ordnance bomb on the the barrel above gas piston. I do not know what barrel band. Also a "Spring Tube" receiver           Pics of wood. I R 8 in sling cut on stock.            I was bored so this was a fun learning experience.  |

I would suggest anyone who bought one of these go here and sign up.
http://www.uscarbinecal30.com/forum/forums.html They take awhile to approve accounts, but the real experts hang out there. Some of the early feature bits on these carbines bring $$$, so do some research before you start taking stuff off and dumping "upgrading" them. Also be aware that there are probably a lot more fake parts out there for sale than there are genuine parts (flip sights for one) so be careful buying "correct" parts if you want to go that direction with your carbine. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What the heck, didnt they start selling them like 24 hours ago? Do you live in their parking lot lol? They went on sale at 800 a.m. CST, I checked at 1055 a.m. CST and they were sold out, with a smattering of returns to stock due to ordering errors, etc. through the day, but it was over and done completely by late afternoon. They had imported 3120. Makes me wonder if that wasn't some sort of on-line sales record. I'd imagine they were all boxed and ready to ship when they went on sale. |

Mine is a G-VG Winchester. 1.14million serial so it's 1942. Looks all correct early Winchester except for the stock and rear sight. Pushbutton safety and type 1 barrel band. Has a type 2 dogleg hammer! The stock is a high wood inland with damage around oval cutout. Bore looks fine but gun hasn't been cleaned since it was last used. No pitting anywhere. Great patina.
Overall I'm very happy. More so than I've ever been with the CMP mixmasters!  Attached File Attached File |
