Persian Gulf Command Posted October 1, 2014 Share #13 Posted October 1, 2014 Not trying to distract from this thread but I recently matched up my M3 U.C. 1943 with a Barwood M6. No particular reason I did this than just liked the way the Barwood M6 looked. Does the set trenchbuff found add any validity to dated Utica M3's being issued with Barwood M6's?

Elton Posted October 6, 2014 Share #20 Posted October 6, 2014 To the post by Persian Gulf Command, the blade dated M3's were all in M6 scabbards and some of the blade marked, according to Vincent Coniglios book on M3s. That is such an outstanding find. A find like would make you go in debt.LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
