It's a nice collector's gun but trading a Colt for it?

[baboon]

What is a "squired" M1 Carbine?

[baboon]

Fat finger typing on a cell phone key pad. It sould be aqiured.

I know but the feed and performance are quite different

I found a can of carbine ammo but lacked a gun.

Everybody should have at least one GI M1 Carbine. And an M1 Garand as well.

My Dad used to carry an M1 carbine in his truck many years ago & had .50 caliber can with 800 rounds of .30 caliber Bolivian carbine ammo in the closet. I still have both of them, but my Dad passed on 30 years ago.

I bought an Israeli .30 carbine from a guy @ work & a H&R M1 Garand @ a gunshow, so all my bases are covered on this thread. Neither carbine has a high retail value, but one was my Fathers, so it is valuable to me.

Carbine prices for the recently imported crap from Ethiopia is crazy

[FloridaAKM]

Hey, the termite infestation is free, it only makes the storage depot in Ethiopia more authentic..........

Good trade boon I like that. WWII movies you always see the officers carrying the M1.

This will be the 3rd carbine for me to have owned. My first one was A Plainfield that I bought from my brother. I sold that when I bought my Liberty Mini 14. The next one I bought from a friend of mine who is a big time collector of them. It was really nice totally correct & I paid $650.00 under you have to sell it back to me. He started wanting it back to fill an armory rack he has. Now this one.

I should see what kind of deal he would make me on the tools that were include with that carbine.

I remember when they were about $129.00, AR's were about $175, but I didn't have the money, LOL.

I worked with an old man many year ago who got his from the NRA for $35.00.
