The m1 carbine was the most produced weapon of WW2. It was made to replace the 1911 in the hands of troops, but often found a place in the front lines especially in the hands of Marines in the Pacific Theater.
I often wondered do they make a pistol in .30 carbine caliber, like a revolver with a long barrel. Just wondering....? I know it doesn't have a rimmed cartrage case.
I have a WW2 Quality Hardware( Spring Tube) with Underwood Barrel...too valuable to shoot anymore Feb 2024 purchased new Inland Carbine, found that M1 Carbine Ammo is getting scarce to buy. With several companies like Inland, Auto Ordance etc make M1 Carbine you would think Ammo would be more Available. Bought 4 box at $39 at Cabela's in Ohio. Hit Cabela's in other states no M1 Carbine Ammo
failure to feed is almost always related to the magazine. Look at the magazine feed lips. See if they are bent or damaged. Failure to eject is most likely a weak extractor.
@@FlyingKSports Thank you for the input. I did replace the recoil and extractor springs,purchased 2 USGI magazines along with other “USGI mags”. Noticed two of the so called USGI have an open bolt stop follower. I am still having issues, but with the two other magazines shot 30 rounds without issues. Not sure if I should send to somewhere or shoot it more to see what happens.
