These hand stamped carbines were produced when Inland was manufacturing both "semi-automatic" and "full automatic" carbines at the same time, with all the same receiver markings and based on which model the Army contracted for they were stamped either with a "1" or "2". This example also has the very rare "hand-stamped" M2 model markings on the receiver ring. The serial number range of these M2 carbines is "6,664884-7,234,883", with the actual production of this example May/June 1945. This carbine was produced under a US Army/ Inland contract in the first production group of original "M2" carbine starting in April 1945. This is an excellent example of a very rare original late production Inland Div "M2" carbine as manufactured in mid 1945.
