Looking for original M1 Carbine IBM rear flip sight. no fakes.
"IN B" can be base only no spring and arpeture part.

OR: An original type 2 milled adjustable sight. marked IR CO.

My carbine appears all original but has a fake rear flip probably used to replace an adjustable sight that was removed. 

I wish to take off the fake sight and have a correct one., either the original type flip or the adjustable likely replaced later in it's life.

Thank you.

You are correct. I was reading that these may have been put on later IBM's or have been seen on them.
So, if I had to have an original sight. it may be a good sight to add.in lieu of an original flip sight.

I think stamped IR CO. sights are easy to find. so maybe I don't need to post a want here.

Thank you.
