I'm not sure yet about the carbine. The first priority is the Garand, then I'll think about the M1 Carbine. The folding stock one I saw looked horrible, the grip looked like an after thought...

Yeah, its not the greatest designed rifle..lol.. I like the history of older firearms. Grew up watching war movies and its pretty cool being able to hold and shoot the same weapons I saw on TV. If I had the Carbine, I probably wouldnt shoot as much though. The Carbine replicas are complete garbage.

When I was 10 years old I would get to use the M1 carbine.
i would roam the hills of the farm with my Chesapeak Bay retrevier Brush and shoot Jack rabbits.
Fond memories of that rifle.

A lot of people want to know about owning full automatic firearms.
You can own them.Took me 3 years to get through paperwork.
The crazy prices are because the weapon needs to be made before 1986.
dealing on BAR 30-06.The big boy in WWII.Made an offer on this ten years ago.
Now he wants to sell but price is more than new Z.
Still that is a better deal than I have seen.

I paid $1,200 for my Ingram MAC 10 45ACP. Now I could sell it for about $8,000.

Here's a link to full auto gun prices.

It is legal in North Dakota to carry a loaded concealed firearm without a permit.Even Liberals are packing in this state.

Prices of the full auto's really shot up.

A Lightning Link (drop in auto sear) for an AR is $17,000.

It's just a piece of bent sheet metal.
