Right now, I believe what a couple of folks have said, and also consistent with your opinion. I believe that this rifle was assembled with new or never used parts. The idea that when when more rifles were requested during the KW, that there was no interest in matching parts to manufacturer...

Thanks for taking the time to reply. My son was born at the hospital near you. Brazosport, Lake Jackson, TX. Take care... Mike

M1 Carbine Information you all know more about this than I do. My dad bought this at an army surplus store back in the late 60's and just handed it down to me. I don't know who would have sanded it. My dad wouldn't do it. Just not the type of guy to mess with that kind of stuff. If it were...

I was told that a M1 A1 30 caliber carbine (manufactured by IBM - Serial # 379xxx) is worth $1000 or more. If it is clean, never fired and still has cosmoline in the receiver, what might it be worth? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks to all of you that have chimed in on this carbine. I'm learning a lot. This rifle is in Illinois - I have a M1 A2 Carbine manufatured by IBM. Serial # 379XXXX. It is not a relica, and in new condition. I have 6 AYP 30 clips and dont know what it is worth. Any ideas. I'm...

Thanks for this response. I think you hit on something that is not obvious and you provided relevant feeedback to the question I asked in my original post. Take care.... Mike

If there is such a thing, this is the correct answer. If my life is on the line, I'm staying with statiscally proven and highly used firearms, but my life isn't on the line when I go to the range. I hope...

thanks for your post....

Thanks for your post...

I have one and wanted to see what others thought about Olympic AR's. I went on a few blogs and read old posts. Most were really negative, yet the comments I'm getting here are largely pretty good. I just wanted to see what folks thought... Thanks!

Thanks for a great response. I guess I'm kind of surprised that most of your responses were counter to what I've read about Olympic's AR's. Most everyone responded with feedback based on firsthand exposure. Thank you. About the Palmetto Armory and Olympic connection. I've read that Palmetto...

Okay, I know I'm going to get hammered with anti-Olympic gun sentiment, but I'm actually looking for folks to reply that have owned an unmodified Palmetto Armory / Olympic Arms AR-15. Please share good or bad comments based firsthand experience, not just someone that has heard about...

The rifle is up for sale in the approprite spot, but I am also looking for valuable input from those that aren't bias and just have experience with the AR15 and manufacturer I've described. Just trying to learn... Any input you can provide is appreciated. Thanks!

I just posted for sale a really nice AR15 made by Olympic / Palmetto Armory. I went through (5) 30 round clips in about 1 hour without a hitch. Absolutely fired perfectly and is as accurate as any rifle I've shot (exception .22 LR). Has anyone owned an AR like I'm describing that hasn't...
