I dug up some of the pictures.. of M1 Carbines and other Carbine related junk I have kicking around... so if you all want a thread to post miscellaneous M1 Carbine stuff in, here it is..
Still missing some pictures of one more, the Arlington Ordnance import marked one, I can't find'em.. I think those were lost during the photophuckit mess....
The GI Underwood.. it all came as a package deal.
Same Underwood with close kin folk.. an Underwood Type 6 typewriter
BlueSky imported Inland, GI Underwood,(Iver Johnson) Irma made W. German .22lr trainer, an early, mostly built with GI parts Universal commercial, I keep thinking... Auto Ordnance
I got Thompson on the brain.
Yes.. I put a bayonet lug on the .22lr, cause I could.. a bayonet will loosely fit it.. actually, there is only a slight difference in barrel diameter between the 2 calibers, and I have the rear sight still for the Universal.
GI IBM.. it served in a local VFW for a number of years, it was refinished by someone there. Internally it's in great shape with an 11-43 IBM barrel and some markings still on the stock. I need to find the matching typewriter now..
And what fun is it having a .30 carbine...if you don't have a pistol.
An AMT Automag III in .30 Carbine. Not much on recoil...but it has one loud mouth and a nice fireball when you touch it off.
