  1. Any idjit can post stuff online. You are right to be pissed. Either the GS in question is devious or ignorant, probably both.
  2. One would think, but there is also a shortage of raw materials. Copper demand and prices, for one, have skyrocketed.
  3. Ever heard of paragraphs?
  4. That’s pathetic for a hospital with all the money they make. Memphis gave away a car!
  5. I might pull a folding chair from the display and watch the spectacle.
  6. That's why I never could have been a cop. crazy naked people.
  7. Something from a Knoxville boy...
  8. Best to just cut through the BS and arrange for you and the buyer to meet.
  9. Nice score @monkeylizard! As for the stock, do you research and do it well, before trying any aggressive "cleaning" methods. Especially with that Winchester cartouche! SImple Green and dishwashers are a real good way to strip it. I'd probably wipe it down with some mineral spirits first to see how it looks.
  10. I’m sure there are that El Hombre doesn’t know about. There’s only one gun store in the whole country.
  11. That’s a metric crap-ton of honey!
  12. The bleach in my eyes literally just dried the other day after your initial presentation of this “thing”.
  13. The KCI mags are Korean made and very highly regarded, at least the 15 rounders are from what I hear. The Koreans know a thing or two about M1 Carbines. Regardless, it’s still not the same as having a USGI mag, which every carbine deserves. It’s just part of the fascinating history of those little rifles.
  14. If even so much as a roach gets in the house, I will have no peace until the thing is gone. Doesn’t matter what time of day. If a snake gets in the house...my wife will finally learn that guns do have a purpose.
  15. No doubt about that.
  16. That's low-down and sleazy.
  17. at the optimism and short memory of gun owners. If the ATF decides a gun is this, that, or the other, it is law until the courts decide otherwise. Bump stock ban...direct order of DJT. This new proposal is a quagmire designed for one thing and one thing only. Read the grading proposal. Congress has nothing to do with it and when the obligatory public comments are dismissed then the new regulation takes effect. It will carry the weight of law.
  18. Looking forward to pics of two NPM’s! Y’all get busy and show us what you got!
  19. That wasn't the case earlier .
  20. Well, that didn't last long. The great MidwayUSA M1 Carbine drop of 2021 is over. Sold out in a little over 3 hours.
  21. Good price? $1k is bargain basement for USGI these days. It all depends on the manufacturer, condition, etc., etc. There are several post-war manufacturers. Plainfield, Iver Johnson, a brand new company called Inland (no relation whatsoever to the Inland division of General Motors from WWII) that is making brand new ones now. Some of them are crap, some are decent. Those made between 1942-1945 for the US military are unquestionably the best.
  22. They could at least include one brand new Korean KCI mag. They’re $12 retail and I haven’t heard a bad thing about them.
  23. Very late in the war, like 1945 right before production ceased. The Type 2 rear sight is the milled adjustable sight, Type 3 is the stamped version. The Type 3 barrel band includes the bayonet lug. It was standard practice for all M1 Carbines to be upgraded with these features after the war. That is why one should always question the “authenticity” of one with flip sights and no bayonet lug. Finding a true original is very rare. Your Inland shipped with the Type 1 flip sight and Type 1 or 2, probably 1, barrel band. That’s pretty much from memory cause I don’t feel like dragging the books out.
