SN: 1521924. Made by National Postal Meter in 1944 with an 18-inch barrel chambered for the .30 Carbine cartridge. Although this carbine was built during the Second World War, its factory parts configuration was changed by a post-war rebuild. Despite that though, it is still equipped with a flat bolt, Type 2 barrel band & 2-rivet handguard. Rebuild parts include an M2 magazine catch, a flip safety, a stamped adjustable rear sight assembly & a low-wood oval-cut M2 stock. During the Cold War, this M1 Carbine was issued to the Landes Gendarmerie Kommando (LGK) of OberoOsterreich (Upper Austria) & is so marked just behind the magazine well. Overall condition is excellent with a bright bore but there is rust on buttplate. Comes with an oiler, Austrian marked leather sling & a USGI 15-round magazine. Consignment
