The carbine was rather unique amongst all arms in WWII domestic or foreign. It wasn't a rifle or a sub-machingun. Did any other nation in WWII have a real carbine? Not just a cut-down of a fullsize model.The M2 all but replaced the sub-machinegun. What would you rather have out of the american arsenal of the time; Thompson, M3 greasgun, M50 Reising, M42 U.D. or the M2 carbine?
@Tippet76 the pistol grip is not a requirement of being an assult rifle its needs an intermediate cartridge to be select fire no pisol grip requires thats just for californias bullshit assult weapons ban

@TheAlexagius If there is no stock than it is not a long gun. Again, by your definition a weapon like the SAW is an assault rifle

@TheAlexagius If that's all that's required than by your definition a SAW is an assault rifle and not a machine gun.

So is this a true M2 or is it just the trigger group from an M2?

That's a lot of heat for such a tiny gun. Thanks for the post!
