This is a very rare and certainly one of a kind late WWII M1A1 carbine that was produced by the Inland Division of General Motors and has a handwritten presentation inscription on the side of the stock from David Marshall (Carbine) Williams to a friend Donald Miller. The right side of the stock has been inscribed with the following: "To Donald Miller/From Carbine Williams Sept. 30-1968". Accompanying this carbine is a copy of a picture of Carbine Williams signing the carbine stock marked "to/Donald Miller/Every good wish/Carbine Williams/Dec. 29, 1964. The inscription was marked in the wood, with a ball-point pen and now the ink has evaporated away leaving only the marks in the wood. The actual carbine itself is a mid-WWII model manufactured in late 1943, that has been arsenal refurbished. The receiver ring is marked: "US CARBINE/CAL 30 M1" and INLAND DIV/2929382". The barrel is marked "INLAND MFG. DIV./GENERAL MOTORS/10-43". It has a low-wood stock with the folding buttplate has the correct cast in part number and leather cheek piece. The left side is stamped "AAM" for Augusta Arsenal, and a single uncircled "P" proof is on the pistol grip. The underside of the pistol grip is stamped with "R.I." indicating it is a Korean War replacement. It is still fitted with a type II barrel band, flat blued bolt, early smooth push button safety, late war underlined M magazine release. Two rivet handguard and a late war stamped adjustable rear sight. It comes with an olive green GI unmarked web sling. The magazine is marked "AI." This lot also includes 2 framed photos, 1 unframed, 1 hard cover book, 3 soft cover books and the "Carbine Williams" movie on DVD.
