Has anyone ever seen TVA on the the bevel of a Carbine?
I own a late Inland that has TVA scribed on the bevel.
I was told that the Carbine was by used by guard's while the dam was being built.
Is it true?
Any thoughts on this?

It was once property of the Tennessee Valley Authority, there is a thread on the TVA marking on the forum somewhere.
