M1 Carbine

1944 Winchester M1 Carbine (.30 Carbine - 7.62x33).

Loading, firing and busting some water jugs. Cheap reactive targets are always fun.

Yes, there's a ricochet on the last shot.

I don't understand why .30 Carbine isn't a more popular round.

What kind of ammo do you use, anyways?

[DrakeGmbH]

@DanTheVikingr Usually Remington, it seems to be easy to find locally.

sounds like an airsoft gun O.o

[DrakeGmbH]

@TheGreendude0 Sounds like an M1 Carbine to me. Rather clanky sounding action.

[MjMikoolJr]

Which came first, the m1 garand or the m1 carbine?

[DrakeGmbH]

@MjMikoolJr The M1 Garand entered development in the early 1930's and was adopted in 1936. The M1 Carbine was designed in 1938 and adopted for service in 1942.

@vitorgaray If that's the case I'm not sure why you didn't post your comment on the Garand video.

Honestly, I find the little Carbine much more enjoyable to shoot than the Garand. Lighter, less recoil, and easier to feed. The Garand is pretty picky about its gas port pressure while the Carbine digests anything that fits in a .30 Carbine case. Easier to load and unload as well.

0:24 sounds like a Ricochet to me! Very nice M1 Carbine, A Winchester at that! I used to have an Old Saginaw years ago. I regret selling the beauty.

ive never seen a stripper clip for a magazine b4

[coheedatreyu]

love the ricochet on the last shot :p

[DrakeGmbH]

@WeekendWarrior556 .30 Carbine's report is a lower tone than a .22. More like a .38 or 9x19mm. The high pitched clank of the gas piston striking the operating rod appears to drown much of it out, at least when using this camera. As I said before it's a very clanky sounding gun to shoot, felt recoil is about like a .223.

I know it's not fake, but doesn't half sound it. lol
