If a manufacturer didn't get it right, it didn't go out the door on a finished carbine.

Requirements each part would have to meet to pass inspection, not only by the manufacturer but also by U.S. These standards insured the parts were interchangeable between all of the U.S. Ordnance standards were established based on research and development, testing, field use of 30 caliber carbines M1, M1A1, M2, and T3.
