Offered for sale is a U.S. M1 Carbine manufactured by National Postal Meter, one of the more desirable and less common WWII prime contractors. This example presents as an original configuration carbine, not an arsenal rebuild, which makes it significantly more collectible.
Key Features:
- Manufacturer: National Postal Meter
- Model: M1 Carbine
- Caliber: .30 Carbine
- Barrel: Buffalo Arms Co. – 11-43 dated
- Configuration: Original, non-rearsenaled example
Condition:
Overall good original condition with honest WWII service wear:
- Original finish remains with expected thinning and handling marks
- Stock shows normal dings, wear, and service character
- Metal has an even, untouched look consistent with original rifles
- No signs of post-war overhaul or heavy refinishing
This is the kind of wear collectors like to see—honest and undisturbed.
Configuration Notes:
- Appears to retain correct early features, including:
- No bayonet lug
- Early style components throughout
- The Buffalo Arms 11-43 barrel is a desirable wartime replacement/contract barrel seen on correct builds
Unlike most carbines on the market, this one does not appear to have gone through a post-war rebuild, which adds to its collector appeal.
