*SUPERB IBM PLANT #4 M-1 PRESENTATION CARBINE TO HUGH BULLOCK.

*SUPERB IBM PLANT #4 M-1 PRESENTATION CARBINE TO HUGH BULLOCK. . SN NSN. Cal. 30. 18″ bbl. This carbine shows no legend or information on the receiver, with the only identifying marks being the IBM plaque presenting this rifle to “HUGH BULLOCK” of that company. The rifle is accompanied by an 18-page letter from renowned author R. L. Wilson, describing this gun and Mr. Bullock as well as his family and others. The rifle itself shows a high-polish blue finish with high quality wood that is well varnished, with an inlaid plaque on right side of butt stock that reads: “PRESENTED TO HUGH BULLOCK BY IBM PLANT #4 POUGHKEEPSIE N.Y.”. All components on this rifle are IBM and so marked. The rear sight is a standard 2-leaf flip sight with the bbl band being Type 1 with a little fancier clamp screw, and the operating rod being Type 1. The only components on this gun that are not high-polish blue are the bolt, which is standard blue; the front bbl band, which is standard blue; the hammer and recoil spring guide, which are in the white; and the operating rod spring. Rifle is accompanied by a standard 1944-dated web sling. PROVENANCE: Tom Clinton Collection. CONDITION: Barreled receiver shows 90% of the orig blue with some spotty rust present from poor storage. Most of this should clean up. Butt stock and handguard show very good with only a few minor blemishes, and worn through the varnish where the front sling tab rubs against the stock. This is a rare and exotic (1 of 6) carbine that should enhance any collection. 4-37326 BK24 (7,000-10,000)
