m1 carbine

I took out my 1943 Rock-Ola M1 Carbine and shot my reactive Mini-Mo target. It has the original flip sight. The mini-Mo silhouette it a pretty small target through the iron battle sight. It made for a good challenge. I put together this video, Hope you enjoy it. I purchase this out of auction...

Hello, friends. I've inherited a 1942 Inland M1 Carbine and decent amount of original ammunition. When zeroing it this last weekend, I was quite surprised to find how far the rear sight had to be drifted to attain a POA/POI windage zero. I was also surprised at how much of the front sight I...

Hey Studs! Happy Fathers Day to all the Daddios out there! BRAVO to each of you for the standard & self-sacrifice you operate in. I have done some "light research" on the early M1 .30 Carbines that were standard firearms for the U.S. military during World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam...

I bought this M1 back in 1990, still have the receipt, it was $139.00 through shotgun news. It's a Korean re-import by Blue Sky, and other than the barrel and receiver, everything else is pretty mismatched. The metal parts of the Carbine look good thanks to the refinish job done by Blue Sky...

Hey pals. So I just bought a M1 Carbine from Gunbroker and will need to acquire magazines to feed said. I'd like to buy a small stash of 15-rounders, a couple 30-rounders for the grins, and one 5-rounder. I'm seeing a number of options online from the big vendors. Questions: Any...

Hey pals. Anyone have experience with the newly made Inland Manufacturing M1 Carbines? I'm tempted to invest in one of the carbines and/or the pistol version for grins. Any real world experiences would be great. Thanx!

Hey ya'll, I'll be hitting the deer woods this weekend and will be hunting in a spot that will allow real close shots, so I've been thinking about taking my M1 Carbine with me. I've got some PPU soft point on hand and was curious if anyone has any experience with the performance of this...

Anyone ever shot one with a can on it? I know I'm stuck with super sonic ammo if I want it to cycle and feed. I'm considering sending mine off to get threaded so I can put a simple 9mm pistol can with no moving parts on it. No point in trying to get one thats "30cal rated" since they all seem...

I came across the following beauty; it is in impeccable condition. Here are some details: Manufacturer: Ingram Manufacturing Div. General Motors Manufacture date: 12-44 Caliber: .30 M1 I need your help to determine the following: 1. If you take a close look at pictures 7 and 8 you can see...

Hello, this is my first post on here. I recently acquired an Auto Ordnance M1 repro carbine from an online auction. After winning it (which i was hoping i wouldnt) I have had instant issues since receiving this rifle. This is also my first carbine so any help would be greatly appreciated...

I've had some good success loading 110gr plated bullets made by German company H&N Sports for my M1 carbine and thought I'd share my success with others. In short, the recommended 12.0gr Viht. N110 load worked very well for me. This load is around 160fps slower than my FMJ load but after...

So I took my M1 carbine out shooting this weekend, which was fun and all, but I cracked the stock behind the tang screw. To clear things up, it's an IAI M888 so not a genuine M1 carbine. I was going to ask for suggestions on how to fix this but I want to post some pictures first, which I won't...

My grandpa just gave me his sporterized M1 Carbine After taking it apart and cleaning it before taking it out and shooting it for the first time I noticed that the 1960's POS scope mount that was attached to the side of the receiver is actually being hit and forced upwards slightly every time I...

I've owned probably two dozen guns of various types in the decade or so I've been shooting, but I've never actually owned a semi-auto rifle besides a .22 LR. The main reasons are (1) I don't care for the noise and (2) I hate the idea of fetching all the brass for reloading, at least when...

Hi Everyone, First time posting, but I've been enjoying the wisdom in this forum for awhile now. I bought a CMP M1 carbine last week, and went to the range to try it out for the first time today. I had bought some Armscor USA ammo, and everything was going well until I went to put in a...
