Times and technology are the downfalls of everything. Time moves on, and things get better.
At the start of things, the M1 was an edge, towards the end, the Germans knew what was what with the STG/MP44 and things moved ahead.
I grew up learning to shoot from people who were issued the M1 and fought with it, as well as the M14, and M16, some of them fought with all three. All of them liked the M1, and M14, but to a one, all of them had an AR in the house up until they died, as the gun they would grab should it be needed. Theres a reason for that.
