I have a 1942 Inland, 5-digit Serial Number, early features. Wish I had a few more. Looks like a fine collection, there, cap.

Very nice Inland you have there ... all the early features -- 5 digit at that!!
Now you need to "go Green" so you can bring them all to a member shoot to play.
Did any of them come from Charles Hadley in Maine?
I've got carbines from Underwood, Saginaw S'G', Saginaw SG, IBM, Rock-Ola, and Quality Hardware, plus two Plainfield commercial stripped receivers. I like carbines.
Poor me has only one, a 1942 Inland
OTOH, I've just added 4 more Mausers and a P.38 yesterday
What's the difference between Saginaw S'G' versus Saginaw SG?

SG (General Motors) had a contract to produce Carbines at their Saginaw MI Plant. Inwin Pedersen Arms also had a contract and produced 3,542 Carbines; however, none passed government inspection and were not accepted. General Motors took over the production and contract from Inwin Pedersen Arms, along with all their manufacturing capabilities located in Grand Rapids MI. In order to distinguish the General Motors Saginaw produced carbines from the Grand Rapids produced carbines, the Grand Rapids produced carbines were stamped S'G'.
Awesome thread!
Dude, I'll never be able to keep up with you on K98k's. Dare I ask, codes and dates?

I only have one at the moment, a first batch Winchester, but with a later sight. Here it is with my 1944 SA Garand.
