I just wish the markings on the other side were complete as well, but it's still better-looking than most dummy guns. The good thing is that the rear-most torch cut was just forward of the markings on the left side of the receiver, so the nomenclature and serial #s are still very clear. The M1 I have has been made into a display gun, made from parts of a torch-cut parts set, all welded into a mass that is ATF friendly (I'm not going to type for 4 hours to explain what was done with it, suffice to say that it has been confirmed as ATF acceptable). I always though it was just the lack of ears on the rear site. Canfield's book says that the M1 was made from 1942 until 1943 when the M1A1s came out, but other than that, I have no clue of the timeframes involved.įrankly, this has been a learning experience, as I had no idea the M1s were as different from the M1A1s as they were. I'm still trying to find info on the date of mfg. I can't get a copy of that book for now, is there any website that lists serial numbers by dates? Oh, it's definitely an M-1, and is marked as such on the receiver.
