Where on your carbine is it stamped Remington or any variation/abbreviation?

On back of receiver group between the sight and serial number reads "Remington Rand."  Remington Rand was originally Remington Typewriter.

Yes.  I'm very familiar with R-R.  And it's stamped where it should be.

 

I'd be interested to know what's stamped on the barrel not far behind the front sight.  Should have a manufacturer and possibly a month/year of manufacture.

 

Sometimes the manufacturer stamped on the receiver under the rear sight differs from the barrel manufacture.

 

Thanks.

No stamping there,  The only other markings are on the receiver above the chamber --U.S. Carbine Cal. 30 M1.  Serial number in the 50,000,000 series.  As I stated, if a company had a machine shop, it was doing defense work, many times subcontracting to the actual contractor. Sorry, but my only source is from former worker who is now long gone.  He lacked part of a thumb and was 4F, still contributed to the war effort.
