My new carbine

shooterX · July 5th, 2009, 01:58 PM

Bought an Auto Ordnance M1 carbine, got it a bout a two weeks ago, along with an extra 15 round magazine and a 30 rounder. GField striped it and cleaned it on friday morning and then went to my brohter hunt lease to try it out. Really shoots nice, was a little surprised how loud it was though compared to my ruger PC4 which we also shot on Friday. I plan on installing the ultimak scout scope mount on and saving for a red dot or reflex scope. surprisingly I've been able to find some ammo for it, not a lot, but some FMJ for plinking and some Corbon DPX JHP for SD. Pictures included below, one with it next to the
Ruger.

Very nice

Great buy. The stock on that one has an appealing appearance too.

I love the .30 Carbine round which is more capable than is sometimes assumed.

Nice carbineand sounds like you got a good deal too.

Amazing find! That little thing packs just as much if not more than an AR and is just as nifty.

As long as you feed it the right ammo.

I have some Corbon DPX for it as mentioned already, and I have some Winchester 110 gr HSP backordered.
