Back to Fulton, I looked at there web sight for parts, and didnt see any complete bolts, and stuff like that, only a few little parts and some accessories.

James River Armory has parts (complete bolts and other parts available). Look them up.

I have had a M1 carbine from Fulton Armory for some years now; going back to when
they used military receivers. Mine was built on an Underwood receiver and
included; the bayonet lug, all new GI surplus working parts, a new commercial barrel,
a new commercial type III low wood style American walnut stock, and the M2
carbine magazine catch I ordered. I have been more than pleased with the carbine.
As a side comment, I recently saw on another forum where someone had found a great M1 carbine stock, but could not identify the cartouche. It was; top line F.A., and second line CMcK. I'm sure many of you know this is the Fulton Armory's cartouche; Fulton Armory, Clint McKee Boyd stamps on the stocks they build for F.A. Looks like someone replaced the F.A. stock with something else on their carbine. |

They have a parts page that looks pretty complete to me: http://www.fulton-armory.com/M1-Carbine-Parts.aspx What is it you're looking for that they don't offer? |

From what I've read and seen the Fulton is the cream of crop for commercial carbines, the only question I have, are the critical parts hardened properly, this was a major problem in other commercial carbines?
As for ammo, and to have some fun, buy some of the new Buffalo Bore rounds, they are a little expensive but worth it, you'll see what I mean when you fire one in the recoil. They have a higher muzzle velocity and muzzle energy than stand rounds, higher than original GI spec. The higher muzzle energy improvement makes the carbine legal for hunting bigger game in some states. You can get them in 4 configurations including ball, soft point and hollow point. Here is the link, because these are new, I think you can only buy these on line here. www.buffalobore.com/ |
