thanks, lt!
I dimly recalled there being another there, so I was second guessing myself. I think you're right, Interarms might have been from Arlington too, but I suspect this was a Blue Sky import- I saw a rather dearly priced M1 carbine today, in quite nice shape, a NPM with a rockola barrel, and part of an 'Arlington VA" stamp on the barrel. I think I'll pass on it. My Pop got an M1 carbine recently and I have a new-found appreciation for them, but this would need to be the last one on earth before I'd fork over the kind of dough being asked for an import marked carbine
