M1 Carbine, A bit of History

Very interesting read Clarence. I had an M1 Carbine manufactured by General Motors many years ago. Wish I had not let it go. It would still be a good home defense weapon.

Thanks Clarence, beyond interesting. Now I just have to figure out how to send it to a buddy.
I think I mighta sent it to him by right clicking then sharing via outlook.

Just open the article, then cut and paste the http// link on your email, Mike. That should do it.

I have Rifleman going back to 1951, my dad was a member before me. So many great old articles.

My dad had one in Korea and the actions in the Formosa/Taiwan Straits. He liked the Carbine. Dad had one on the farm as his knock-around ranch rifle and home defense long gun. We shot thousands of 110 gr. ball ammo plinking and kept Remington Peters 110 gr. soft points for serious stuff. Dad could shoot and coyotes, foxes, groundhogs, skunks, possums, feral dogs and cats were in serious trouble if Dad caught them messing around where they shouldn't be messing. With some of the modern perked-up loads, the M1 Carbine could make a darn fine home defense/small ranch rifle.
