Only thing I would suggest you mention, is that actual ww2 military carbines were the most produced and 6.5 million in 3 1/2 years. New and or other manufactured after the ww2 carbine are not as collectible as the military. Just the history alone os awesome and now they are still all around the world. I've never met anybody that has shot one, not like or just fall in love with it. Good job.
I've got an Inland M1 Carbine with an IBM barrel. It's a fantastic shooter. I've previously also owned a Universal and Auto Ordnance post war commercial productions. And honestly the Auto Ordnance, made by Kahr Arms, was actually VERY good. I only sold it after I finally got my hands on the WWII Inland.
I think they made about 200,000 of the top of my head.As I said I had one I loved. It was configured to take the Infra red sniperscope. So back sight was like a pistol.Excellent defence weapon if you are not bound to use non expanding bullets.
I own an IBM M1. Which is special because my late father in law, as an officer carried an M1 in the Korean war. He retired as a Marine Col. Served 20 years with the FBI. Then, worked for IBM for 20 years. So it is cool to have an M1. And even cooler an IBM manufactured rifle! :)
Nowadays collecting carbines has to be a very rich persons hobby. I got one left. A build I did on a reimport IBM. Probably only the receiver is still IBM. I switched out the rare laminated IBM trigger housing for an Inland, as I thought it was ugly. The rest of the gun is selected parts including post war and the barrel installed was a Korean war surplus unused. Tack driver unlike those shot out barrels. I have had collector grade carbines including rarities but that was back in the day. I just did not have storage for a big collection of safe queens.
it was said that the Germans who like the close or assault tactics, loved the 30M1 Carbine and tried to get as many as they could for their use as they advanced into Allied territory.
Can't afford an M1 Carbine so I'll have to settle for my Ruger 10/22, which looks similar. My dad carried the M1 Carbine as a Corporal in the 793rd Combat Military Police across France and into the Rhineland 1944-1945.
Great little carbine. Seen a bunch of them come and go through the shop I worked at. They never lasted long. Good video! Bite the bullet n buy one you wont regret it! 😊
M1C is amazing. I had one quite a few years ago, but finally decided to sell it...I like to plink and the .30 ammo is seriously overpriced imo. It is a very capable round for the range/purpose it was created...and dependable. It would make a very solid home defense tool if the ammo had continued to be developed/updated.
Very cool! One of my friends that runs a small gun shop that is an 07/02 has an M2 Carbine with the coned flash hider in the gun safe. It’s a very cool weapon to handle and admire. I may get to take it out for a spin at some point…..if we can find some ammo for it that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.
We should add that at the beginning of WWII, our military brass were shocked at the speed the Germans were able to defeat the French and British through 'blitzkrieg' tactics and many French/British units were outflanked allowing German units to get behind their lines threatening artillery and other vital supporting units. The M1 Carbine was developed to better arm these units who are normally stationed far from the front line.
I kick myself everytime i remember this.... 1999 maby 2000 i was checking out a m1 carbine made by ibm. It was in excellent condition. As far as i could tell just nice as hexk. IBM caught my eye because my granddad my mother and step dad and uncle all worked and retired with IBM. Omg my gut said buy buy buy. It was 400 bucks afordable. I dont remember why i passed but i think of that carbine all the time.
Yes, and not many manufacturers are willing to get the technical design package and manufacture brand new M1 carbines On top of that, the AR 15 is modular and allows for different cartridges adapted just by simply switching parts in this case and upper receiver with a new barrel and it’s even easier to remove the barrel with simple compression tools off the upper receiver. You can’t do that with the M1 car or the AK 47 rifle On top of that M1 carbine receiver design does not very well with a high-pressure rifle cartridge, usually high-pressure pistol cartridge straight wall A manufacturer is not willing to invest in an unproven design, but it’s quite willing to make legacy and one carbines I think hunting the 350 legend But with the A.R. 15 modularity they’ve already beaten to the punch to for the 350 legend The M1 carbine is a legacy shooter and some manufactures of adapted to the 9 mm cartridge
I own one, there’s plenty of commercial copies out there available so if you don’t wanna mess with a historic one, you can get a commercial one and put a red dot on it also you didn’t mention the cost of the ammunition it ain’t cheap anymore
I feel we need to make more m1 carbines for public to buy for self defense and it is a great rifle we need to make a newer version to sell to civilians in Israel teachers from preschool to college are issued these rifle maybe a 15 20 round carbines for a self defense rifle.
There are currently two companies that I know of making replicas / copies of M1 Carbines . They are Auto Ordnance ( they were a sub contractor making receivers for M1’s during WWII and the new , not the original Inland mfg.) I have a few USGI carbines and bought Auto Ordnance AIM150 which is the para trooper with the folding stock . One of my USGI carbines is an M1A1 Paratrooper .
I laugh at the firing demos where people shoot from the bench at 50 yards and their groups are the size of your hand. You need a new barrel. The imports were used and abused and bores shot and scrubbed. You can sometimes improve them by doing the GI recrown of the muzzle where the cleaning rods and wear wore them. Brownells makes a muzzle recrowning tool with the 30 cal insert that used to be cheapish and you can do it by hand. Not as pretty as a lathe job but does the trick.
..my late wife repkaced my 6 digit Inland (600K range) that I lost after my 2002 stroke (3/43 barrel) with another 6 digit Inland (300k range)..I miss her..she was a good woman...
I forgot to say my carbine saved my life.Had it in the car,Got hit by a drunk doing twice the speed limit.I was trapped and petrol tank ruptured the muzzle and butt bounced off the window.When It started to burn and I was on fire I blew out the window.I had intended to run to first house with a lawn and try roll over but as luck goes it was outside an ambulance station and they were wait with extingishers and blew me out.Only lost my hair but gave me PTSD.

Thank you so much and you are right.

I would not mind having one of those new production ones. They look nice.
@@thetexasgunvault I can vouch for the Auto Ordnance. But i've heard mixed things about the new "Inland Manufacturing" ones.
You are right about being accurate at 50 yards the bullets would touch then as you fired the whole mag it would open up to fist sized group
Very cool !!! I had no idea that IBM produced the M1 Carbine. Thank you for sharing. God Bless !!!
You bet and thank you for watching!

I agree, it is so cool to have one made by a computer company.
A lot of folks don’t know that this cartridge was based on the .30 Pederson rifle cartridge of WWI.
I did not know that. That is cool information. Thank you for sharing.
Nice job Pops👌love your vids.
Glad you like them!
My Dad carried one in Korea... always wanted one for myself
That is the first rifle I ever shot my grandfather taught me on his he was in ww11 I loved it
That is awesome. That is a great story.

Wow! It sounds like you have an amazing collection!
I love the m1 carbine such a neat gun and history.
Yes it is!
I own an Inland M1. Usually shooting from the prone at 50 meter. It is a great little gun.
They really are such cool rifles.
it was said that the Germans who like the close or assault tactics, loved the 30M1 Carbine and tried to get as many as they could for their use as they advanced into Allied territory.
I had not heard that. Cool information.
Can't afford an M1 Carbine so I'll have to settle for my Ruger 10/22, which looks similar.
My dad carried the M1 Carbine as a Corporal in the 793rd Combat Military Police across France and into the Rhineland 1944-1945.
That is a cool story. I hope you get one like your Dad's one day!
👍 nice product
Sure is
The # 1 gun in the hands of medal of honor guys. Including audie Murphy
Yes it is.
Great little carbine. Seen a bunch of them come and go through the shop I worked at. They never lasted long. Good video! Bite the bullet n buy one you wont regret it! 😊
Thank you, and I am sure I will!
Been looking for a IBM as of late.
They are so cool.

It is a very capable round for the range/purpose it was created...and dependable. It would make a very solid home defense tool if the ammo had continued to be developed/updated.
I wish the ammo was more available these days too.
Aside from a .22 rifle, the M1 Carbine is the most fun gun to shoot.
It sure is!
I have a I BM carbine i treasure this firearm! The 30 carbine is underrated 😮
I agree!
Very cool! One of my friends that runs a small gun shop that is an 07/02 has an M2 Carbine with the coned flash hider in the gun safe. It’s a very cool weapon to handle and admire. I may get to take it out for a spin at some point…..if we can find some ammo for it that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.
Those M2s are so cool!
I own one, purchased from CMP {Civlian Markmanship Program}. Being in computer industry this is a must own! Also it is LIGHT wieght and accurrate.
Yes it is!

Id enjoy one in my collection 😮
Me too!

A manufacturer is not willing to invest in an unproven design, but it’s quite willing to make legacy and one carbines
I think hunting the 350 legend
But with the A.R. 15 modularity they’ve already beaten to the punch to for the 350 legend
The M1 carbine is a legacy shooter and some manufactures of adapted to the 9 mm cartridge
Very good points.

I have heard the barrels can cause issues.

I am so sorry for your loss.
like the ham radio
Thank you so much! I am a general class.

Wow, that is a crazy story!
I'm a Master with an IBM. The carbine, not the computer.
They are sweet rifles.
..put a dime in number 4...
LOL
..there are infinite variations among those carbines for collectors...
Yes there are. Too many to keep track of.
I really love the M1 carbine,I own one brand new only shot 10 rounds in 1972. I took to the range 8 years ago and fired 25 shots and very accurate.
That is great to hear!
Yours looks too nice. The stock may have been replaxed? For sure never aaw combat or even issued looking that pristine?
It might be.
