I just discovered you guys and signed up.
I am in Southern Maryland, I am a retired Submarine Sonarman Master Chief, USN and now run a charter boat on the Chesapeake Bay. A couple of years ago I got into learning about and collecting M1 Garands and a little bit into WWII and Korea War Bayonets. As these things tend to do, that has spilled over into now wanting a M1 Carbine. I have read several books and have scoured the CMP Forum trying to get smarter on Carbines and then I came across you guys. Please be patient with my rookie questions and at some point I hope to be able to contribute something of value. Thanks for having me. |

Welcome and don't worry about "rookie" questions. There are probably 10-20 other "newbies" wondering the same things.

Welcome from another retired Submarine Sonarman! Barb, Grayling, Chicago, and Boise.
You’ll find some amazing knowledge and insight here from some pretty good folks. I thinks there’s a few more bubbleheads here too!

Trepang: Welcome. I've been here just a couple years but visit daily for the learning. I find the tenor of comments here to be more pleasing compared to at the CMP place.
