Floyd,
Shame of it was, It was a Inland 2,9 mil in a Type II stock with intact CC, WSI Flip, Type I barrel band, Inland no date barrel.... etc. Was Outside pictures only, which showed the late Op Slide and parked bolt. But along with the Numrich stamps there was a Boxed: RIA over EK stamp. Sold for $1,550.00 plus $40.00 shipping plus any other fees on GB or at home. I've been wanting a Inland in the 2 mil range to check that box and was getting interested until I seen the left side of that stock. I hate seeing stocks ruined like this. Still thought about bidding but the stamps soured my taste for it.

This must be a really rare 23-7, hope it comes with a few carbines for that price!

At first I thought this was a case of inflation at work! I see the seller lowered the price to 14.99 now - someone better snap up this reprint at 99.75% deflation ;)

This should really be a Sunday Not so Funny since some poor soul paid $6325 for it. Here are just a couple of the 98 pictures in the listing. 

"OMG! WW2 5-1943 U.S. Inland "1st TYPE" M1A1 PARATROOPER Carbine! 99% COND!"

"The FINEST! 100% GENUINE WW2 M1A1 on the MARKET!"

Above M1A1Seller is Clauss-FCR
Has anyone ever looked at his Seller and Buyer Feedback?
The Bidding on this M1A1 looks Shady but that aside, who ever won it likely may never see it.

And if your Selling I'd advise you Block Clauss-FCR and save your self a potential nightmare.

Wayne, you forgot the picture of the "F" on the FRONT of the grip, Ordnance failed the correction!

I have seen sellers with negative feedback, what I do not think is every seeing so many B, C, and D reviews.
It would seem that seller rating does not drop proportionately to the review letter class.
Several had posted to please remove the seller.

You can buy that label"100 Top Sellers". There are more than 100.

Below is the description of a Hammer Spring listed on ebay.

M1 Carbine New Hammer Spring US Government Models Free Shipping

Made in the USA! Here we have a NEW, hammer spring for the M1 Carbine rifles as issued by the US Military. This fits models manufactured for the military by firms such as Winchester, Inland, Rockola, etc.. Please note that these will NOT work with Universal carbines. If you experience light strikes with your US M1, then replacing this spring will usually resolve the problem.
Not sure which M1 you have?  If your carbine has a single recoil spring, then you have an original US Government issued carbine.  If it has two recoil springs, then you have an aftermarket Universal M1.

Don't laugh. I saw some "gunsmith" on Youtube whining his cheap USGI Carbine stock wasn't fitting his "new" Carbine, I had to post that he clearly had a Gen 3 Universal and sugggested he should research before he whines

Been a tough start to March for Sellers trying to collect from Clauss-FCR.
Click on Claus-FCR's Feedback as a Buyer for March 7, 5 and 2


Guy really should be banned.
Also don't see any Feedback left by the Buyer of the M1A1 for Clauss, but Clauss left it for the buyer after getting home from the bank!
