Hello All,  I hunt and have a number of firearms.  Used to bench rest and still reload all my hunting cartridges.  As a teenager,  close friends had an M1 carbine and we used to shoot it a lot.  I have always wanted one but more as a shooter than a serious collector.  A friend was recently cleaning out the family basement and found a carbine as well as a bunch more rifles and pistols.  His father was a service man who had been stationed around the world and collected weapons as well as memorabilia from the past.  Long story short, I bought the carbine and a bunch of related stuff from him.  I am curious as to exactly what I have.  Figured this would be a good place to learn about carbines and to build on what I have already searched out.  Look forward to some good conversations!

Welcome to the forum. Looking forward to hearing more about your carbine or better yet seeing some pictures.
