So my brother finally made in from Kansas and brought me my m1 carbine that has been in this family for 4 generations. It's been shot 0 times in the last 30+ years. I'm going to have bp tactical give it the once over before I shoot it.
It has underwood n the barrel and inland under the rear sites. The stock is in great shape, came with 8 magazines one of which is full of ammunition. I am very excited to have this firearm and shoot it!
That's a great rifle. I have a couple of them and they are great guns to shoot. Enjoy it!

Just stay away from the later model Universals. Poor replica of a great carbine.

Congrats all around!
I've never looked at buying an M1 carbine... Because the only one I would be interested in is the one my grandfather had... At the same time, I don't want my father to give it up...

Thanks for noticing. Haha
Those are just teaser pics, right? The real ones are coming soon? Congrats on the score, I'd consider it a family heirloom, yet I'd shoot the piss out of it too! They're great little rifles, I have three, an IBM, an Inland, and a Plainfield.
