Notes: This is a very nice all original Howa manufactured M-1 Carbine that was manufactured for use by The Royal Thailand Police. Mechanically it is in very good working order and is sure to make for an excellent shooter. These carbines were made for the Thailand police and military forces. This one was issued, but does not look to have seen much use. There is an arsenal repair to the bottom of the stock that is common on these. This rifle comes complete with sling and oiler that appear to be original Thailand used. There is a small import mark on the bottom of the barrel. This rifle has the groove in the barrel for a bayonet lug, but does not appear to have ever had one installed.
