	Modern Firearms - M1 Carbine
		It must be noted that during the war in Korea M1 carbines received some bad fame due to reliability problems in extremely low temperatures and also due to underpowered cartridge, which was sometimes unable to effectively penetrate the thick winter uniforms of North Korean and Chinese soldiers at extended ranges.
		On the earliest carbines the safety was in the form of the cross-bolt push-button but latter it was replaced by the lever-type switch, because in the heat of the combat the safety button was sometimes confused with magazine release button, located next to the safety.
		Carbines were issued with sling and sometimes with additional pouch that was mounted on the buttstock and allowed to carry two spare magazines on the gun itself.

	M1 Carbine
		The M1 Carbine, half the weight and with a less powerful cartridge, was the weapon of choice for support troops, and others not primarily involved in infantry combat.
		The US Carbine, Caliber.30in, M3, or T3, was simply an M2 with suitable mountings prepared on the receiver to take various models of infra-red night-sighting devices.
		The M1 and M2 Carbines were also much more powerful than the Russian type burp guns used by the North Koreans and, later, the Chinese, having more than twice their muzzle energy.

		The M1A1 Carbine has a folding metal stock, but its barrel and action assembly is identical to that of the M 1 version.
		The M2 and M3 Carbines, standardized in September 1944 and August 1945 respectively, were fitted with a selector switch permitting either semi or full-automatic fire.

	History of the M1 Carbine - Riverbank Armory
		The M2 carbine was designed to permit both semi-automatic and fully-automatic fire, allowing a soldier to select which mode of operation he required in the heat of battle.
		Half as heavy as the M1 Rifle, it was quite handy and its fifteen, and later in the war, thirty round magazine gave a fair amount of firepower.
		The manufacturer of an M1 Carbine part was required to stamp their name or other identifying code on all major parts.

		This is a pretty respectable 68 page manual for the M1 Carbine individual owner to use.
		The manual covers the early "L" sight M1 Carbine, its characteristics, disassembly, assembly, functions, immediate action, stoppages, care and cleaning, plus has diagrams and pictures reflecting disassembly, assembly and deployment of the rifle by (apparently) tank crews.
		There is no date on the publication, but it seems fairly obvious that this is an early WWII equivalent of a field manual on the M1 Carbine.

		The M1 Carbine was developed as a lightweight shoulder weapon to replace the.45 caliber M-1911 pistol to be carried by weapons crews and company grade officers.
		As the M1 Carbine was originally issued, there was no bayonet lug but one was added by the end of the war.
		Nonetheless, the M1 Carbine proved an effective light weight weapon that was frequently carried for protection as something between a pistol and a full rifle.

		The.30 Carbine (7.62 x 33 mm) is the cartridge used in the famous M1 Carbine.

		The M1 Carbine was the brainchild of David Marshall "Carbine" Williams.
		Basically the M1 Carbine was developed in response to a requirement for a handy rifle to be carried by clerks, cooks, machine gunners, linemen and the like--soldiers who were not normally issued a pistol but to whom, because of the nature of their duties, the larger M1 Garand might be inappropriate.
		His semi-auto carbine, submitted by his employers, was the arm selected by the government as most appropriate to its needs.

		Horsesoldier RE:stg44 vs M1 Carbine 12/21/2005 8:26:11 PM It would probably be about like being on the receiving end of AK fire at 500 meters -- the two weapons have a similar barrel length and sight radius.
		The m1 carbine was already in widespread use by the time the first stg44's were used and did basically the same thing.

		However, none of the pistol-caliber carbines or submachine guns are nearly as effective as the old and often unfairly maligned.30 Ml carbine.
		In addition, the M1 carbine weighs only 5 1/2 lbs., making it a pound or more lighter than most of its competition, including even the pistol-caliber carbines, and considerably lighter than many like the UZI submachine gun at 8.8 lbs.
		After interviewing many veteran M1 carbine users from World War II, Korea and Vietnam, we found that the vast majority of these soldiers found the M1 carbine to be quite effective even with GI ball ammunition.

	M1 Carbine - Good enough? - Day Of Defeat Forums
		The M1 Carbine is deffinately a fun weapon to use.
		And the carbine is much better than the grease gun and in the right hands better than the Thompson.
		Also the carbine is good as it is, its only designed as a mid-ranged weapon in DOD, don't expect anything more, as each shot does 30 dmg it'd take 4 hits to kill thats if you missed the chest shot or the head.

	Day Of Defeat Forums - M1 Carbine: Will it ever have it's own class?
		I have been waiting since October for the M1 Carbine to be made a proper class, instead of been the sidekick weapon to the novelty 'Zooka'.
		It already favours the axis so the justification that a carbine class would ruin the balance has no basis in fact because as i said the game is already unbalanced.
		If the M1 carbine is a primary weapon, it would be mighty overpowered.

		True, the old M-1 Carbine was a poor substitute for a Garand; however, it was not meant as a substitute for the M-1 Garand rifle, it was designed and issued as a substitute for the M1911A1.45 caliber pistol.
		The muzzle energy (muzzle velocity x bullet weight) of a.30 caliber M-1 carbine exceeds that of a standard caliber.45 ACP round, and is considerably greater than the current military caliber.223 round.

		The M1 Carbine was the result, With a removable box magazine holding 30 rounds of.30 cal. Although this IS a pistol round, It was felt that the sheer firepower of a semi automatic, as well as quick loading box magazines was a more then fair compromise!
		Well, the M1 Carbine is an absolute joy to behold, It has a full wooden stock, and an amazingly well made receiver, as well as a heavy full metal magazine which clips in place with a satisfying clunk.
		In the role of counter sniper, the M1 Carbine is extremely fun to use, the Carbine can be cocked either by use of its cocking handle, or a by use of a metal pump handle on the right hand side which is cut into ridges so its easy to hold onto.
