After replying to your email last week, I spoke with Harrison on another rifle and brought up yours. He also pointed out that 2010 M1922 models were mfg 1922-24 and nearly all of these were Modified to M1 configuration due to a serious design flaw (and many even modified further to M2 if they were still in inventory). As the pictures you sent didn't clearly show the receiver markings, you will be able to tell if yours was one of these by the "M1" stamping being applied in such a way as it is obviously additional (different typeface size and style), and that would put yours in the 1923 mfg year, but still definitively an NRA/DCM sales rifle.
