Show us your M1 Carbine variants. Do you keep yours as GI originals, or have you modded or tricked yours out? Shoot GI surplus and modern equivalent ammo, or do you reload or use modern high performance ammo?
I feel like I should run out and buy an M1 carbine so I can be apart of this thread.
View attachment 897000 Only pic I have on hand is the “Band of Brothers “ with the M1 Carbine at the bottom. Although it's “ bubba-ed” up, I do have the GI parts to put it back to stock GI.
I used to check out an M2 carbine from the arms room. Those were fun to shoot full auto. The P.D. sold all of their older full autos and got HK MP5s. Son-in-law has his Dad's old M1 carbine though.
I want one.

Nice! That's quite a piece of history, and it looks to be in good shape too.Inland. Stock config. 101st airborne, 501st PIR. D-day. Market garden. Saw a lot. From a retired colonel who was there as a young man.
