Making a reply is much easier. If you wish to reply to a post you are reading you can find a "Post Reply" button at the top left of the post,
![]() Or you can find a "Post Reply" Button at the bottom left of the page ![]() The buttons on the menu (Green) does many things which most do not need. It is useful for making a post stand out. ![]() Also just below center that is a quick reply box. This is the quickest and easiest way to make a reply, not that the buttons mentioned above are that much different. Should you decide you want to go further with your post you can click the "Full Editor" button and a new box will open with everything you already typed. From there you can work with the editor. ![]() I hope that helps! |

The Registration help/rules/Tutorials/New Member Introductions is the top forum section where you can introduce yourself. General Discussion is a great place to post general questions and a catch all for most posts. In the General forum you will find some sub forums. Parts Markings is a subsection where you can post about parts marking. by having a subsection it makes it easier to search for answers to see common questions about parts markings. Fun Stuff, Show Reports,, Commercial Carbines , and Other Wartime Firearms are the other sub forums in the general section Newsworthy Items section is the equivalent of our former newsletters where we publish articled and featured carbines. Carbines of the Collectors is a section where you can showcase or share your carbine or carbine related items. Some real good stuff in here from our members. Club Requests and Member Submissions is an forum where we post questions from the club looking for help and pictures on items that we are researching. You can also submit items of interest in this section |

Thanks for the heads up on posting I'm new to this whole thing also. I recently acquired my friends fathers WWII Inland carbine that he carried as a Seabees in the Pacific. It has a 7-43 barrel code and serial number in the 77#,### range. Its in exceptional shape but I don't know if the barrel band is correct or its just missing the shoulder strap loop. It has a vertical binding screw but no loop and the screw seems to be long for its application without the loop in place but it looks properly patinaed. Also its mag was lost so I'm in need of 1 or 2 vintage mags to complete the firearm. I apologize if I posted this in a improper location I will get the hang of this hopefully! Old dogs are hard to train.
Thanks MDARMS

Not sure where to post this. My father was an Army Engineer. He served in the Pacific in WWII, and then went back for Korea in 1950. FWIW, in Korea he was there when the Red Chinese came in. His comment was "fire your basic load and run like hell."
I served two years active duty in Army in Panama Canal Zone in early Vietnam era, so by the time Vietnam really got cranked up, I was a Veteran and home going to college on the GI Bill. No combat, but was an Infantry MOS. Get my hearing aids from VA, and got a "Army Veteran" plate on my car.
My father brought an M1 Carbine home from Korea, which is the gun he taught me to shoot on. He was Army Engineer (I believe he would be considered "Combat Engineer.") He passed away about 8 years back, (at 92!) and it has been just sitting in the closet since then. I took it out to the range a couple of times, and then cleaned it. Hate to but I need to sell it. Don't want to just take it to some gun store. Much happier if it goes to someone who appreciates it and its history. it is pretty much a standard US M-1 Carbine. No rust. i believe it would be considered to be in very good condition. Serial Number 2048xxx. Not positive, but from online lists, looks like manufactured by Standard Products based on this serial number, and sometime in 1943. When I figure out how to post a picture I will do that on here. Not sure if it is OK to offer a carbine for sale on here, but I do need to sell it. And in the meantime if anybody has any information about its origin, etc. that would be great. Chuck P I'll check back to see if anyone has any info or comments. Thanks |

This really should be posted in the for sale section. Pictures would be great, but a complete description would help; type of sight, barrel band, bayonet lug, if any, etc....
