Mark K Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Re-issue McCord late war F/S S/B heat stamp 893 ? which would put the production date as March or April of 1944 it is sporting a 1961 dated Capac liner and a 1963 dated cotton twill Mitchell cover...There is some rather old and faded looking graffiti on the cover but who can say when it was applied ...

Boonie Stomper Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Very nice & with the T-1 quick release. Since September 1944 a new release hook, called T1 was adopted and seldomly mounted, though it became a standard only on years '50s production. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark K Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 Thank you and yes you are correct as to the T-1 quick release the liner was the last contract for CAPAC before they folded and were taken over by Marmac Industries Inc. and the factory moved state Regards Mark 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
