Now everyone knows what my vision is like without my glasses! Of course John's ID is correct. It appears to be investment cast, which would make it a post war replacement part. 0 -

Thanks for the ID. This brings up another Question. Is it legal to sell? Are there any restrictions? OK, two Questions! Thanks. 0 -
It is just a selector and by itself won't do anything to convert an M1 carbine to selective fire. However, when used with the right combination of other parts...
I believe that Washington State bans machine gun parts and components, so this would fall under that category in Washington.0 -
Any idea of value? 0 -
$30 give or take. Genuine WWII selectors are worth considerably more. There is a looped-wire spring which needs to accompany the selector. Check the bottom of that parts box! 0 -

This is definately not cast. It haas a Capital a stamped on it. Sorry about my camera quality but it is all I have. 0 -
I don't know the carbine manufacturers code for Capital, but in that case it is worth $50+
Unfortunately, carbines are not my specialty. If this was an M1 Rifle part I could offer far more assistance.0 -
The "A" is for "automatic"; it's a selector switch.ATF has a list of about 7 or 8 parts necessary to convert an M1 carbine to M2 configuration. All of these parts together are considered by ATF to be an "M2 carbine kit", & would need to be registered & 1 must have a SN to be considered legal. Possession of most of these parts is considered legal.So, possession of just 1 of these parts is legal.This is not legal advice since I am not a lawyer; it is provided solely for amusement.Neal0
