    Help understanding M1 Carbine

    My 63 year old Inland never jambs with WWII surplus magazines and some of them are a little banged up. The commercial magazines are almost useless since they don't have heat treated feed lips.

    Forged???

    When Sears Craftsman brand starts advertising that their wrenches are cast then we will know that it is just as good as forged. Maybe turbine blades are cast but you can bet that the hub which holds them all together is not. Yes Bill Ruger was a smart man, thats why his cast frames are quite a...

    .45 Acp

    G&A did a carbine showdown in one of their issues many years ago, they compared 9mm, 40S&W, 10mm and .45ACP The .45ACP was the only one that actually had a loss of velocity with some brands of ammo out of the carbine/smg length barrel.

    .44 mag carbine for self defense?

    The right .44magnum handloads out of a carbine length barrel can give a 300-400fps incease in velocity. I like to use a maximum charge of H110 and the Winchester 210gr Silvertip. I haven't loaded them in a while but they run close to 2,000 fps.

    A Question on the M1 Carbine

    For a shooter anyone will work. The most over rated one and worst deal is the Winchester. They are charging a premium for it because of the name. There are some lower volume manufactered carbine for sale at a lower price than the Winchesters.

    Sanctions against Russian arms companies...

    We are still the largest arms exporter in the world by far and it sounds like we don't want to give up our lead. If Hugo Chavez wanted to trade oil for Blackhawks and 100,000 M16's we probably never would have heard about it. When the Russians make a deal in our back yard our arms industry...

    Revolver, .45acp VS .357mag Poll

    The 4" is the most practical for carry, the 6" gives better ballistics, but a 5" has a little bit of both and gives up nothing.

    Important Question- Possible Break-In scenario

    +1 on the M1 Carbine, it is light, accurate, more than powerfull enough, the report is mild, the recoil is even less and you can operate the slide with a pinky finger. 15 round USGI magazines are super reliable and if you can find a USGI 30 rounder even better.
