Story is: I did some horse trading a few years back, and this M1 Carbine was part of a package deal. It came in a cover, I glanced at it, and stowed it away--without a second thought. The "prime" part of the deal wasn't even this carbine.
So, while doing a thorough inventory of the collection a month or so ago, I come across this little M1 Carbine. And after reading Bruce Canfield's book, I strip it down, and low and behold all the parts seem to match.
Then, I recall the story, the seller was a family member and former Police Chief of a local municipality. He had acquired it from a widow, who's husband had "brought it back from the Service", and she didn't want it in the house anymore.
Absent an obscene offer for it, I think this Saginaw is a keeper!
