I had an earlier post on here and got alot of great info. I have posted a few pics of the slingwell with S HB that I have identified.
There is a pic of the receiver and I am confident it is an Inland. There is a line through the word Inland Div and you can see it in the picture.
I am still trying to ID the J.M.O on the barrel strap and the EM-Q on the bayonent mount.
I am told the butt plate is Inland but I am not sure.[

Here is one last picture of the gun. Is this a low wood or high wood stock?

EM-Q Quality Hardware.

Butt Plate appears to be Standard Products. Note the letters on the left edge of the plate. I think that that is S-59?

Stock is Low Wood because of the longer cut exposing the operating slide arm. S-HB is Standard Products.


My info is from "U. S. M1 Carbines, Wartime Production" by Craig Riesch. I have found this to be a great resource.

My understanding is that all Bayonet lug systems were from post war rebuilds. Also if the reciever is marked M1 and it has a round bolt(M2) as opposied to the dished out flat bolt(M1), those were used in the post war rebuilds exclusively. Ivan
 
That's a low wood stock. A high wood stock looks like this:
