Harrington & Richardson Model 50 Reising Submachine Gun, Class III/NFA C&R Fully Transferable Machine Gun - Serial no. 8267, 45 ACP cal., 11 inch round bbl., blue finish, hardwood stock. A closed-bolt blowback-operated submachine gun, the Reising Model 50 saw action with the U.S. Marines in the Pacific as a substitute for the M1 Thompson, though they found their best success as defensive weapons for war-essential industries and as patrol carbines for American police forces.

Smooth pistol grip stock with a cocking lever on the underside, leather sling, and a lightly ribbed buttplate.
CONDITION: Excellent, with 95% of the original blue finish, showing light spotting on the flash hider and receiver, along with mild handling marks. The stock is fine, with some dark patches on the left side of the forearm and buttstock and mild scuffs and dings overall. Mechanically excellent. NOTE: This weapon is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives, (BATFE) that is classified as a “Curios or Relic” as defined in 27 CFR, 478.11. These weapons are still subject to the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 479.

U.S. Inland M2 Selective Fire
Carbine, Class III/NFA C&R Fully
Transferable Machine Gun -
Serial no. 7077219, 30 M1 Carbine cal., 18 inch round bbl.,
parkerized finish, walnut stock. Introduced late in World War II, the M2
Carbine was designed to work both as a factory-made machine gun as well as an armorer
upgrade to the extant M1 carbine; this flexibility allowed armorers and arsenals to rapidly swap M1 and M2 components as needed to fulfill TOE requirements. This example left the United States at some point and re-entered the country via Interarms, with their mark present on the right side of the barrel. “R” marked blade front and “PI” marked adjustable rear sights, Inland “4-45” barrel, and a factory original “M2” model marking on the receiver ring. Fitted with an “AI” marked round bolt, Inland milled trigger housing, “H.I.” hammer and selector switch, “Q” operating rod, “E.I” flip safety and M2 magazine catch, with the other internal components unmarked. Installed in a low wood pistol grip stock with a 2-rivet upper handguard.
CONDITION: Fine, with 60% of the original parkerized finish, showing areas of bright gray patina, cycling wear and handling
marks. The stock is fine as refinished, with some light dings and dents. Mechanically excellent. NOTE: This weapon is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives,
(BATFE) that is classified as a “Curios or Relic” as defined in 27 CFR, 478.11. These weapons are still subject to the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 479.
