I have a WWII .30 M1 Carbine made by Saginaw Steering Gear
Division of General Motors. It is a hoot to fire, and, is
dead-on accurate out to 200 yards. I also have the same
soldiers 1911 A1 .45 cal. side arm, plus his 1903 Springfield
30-06 bolt-action rifle manufactured in 1936.
Both are treasures to me. The .45 was made by Ithaca Arms in 1942.

You have some real treasures, especially with the provenance.
