I know this is an AR thread but is there any M1 Carbine shooters who have as much fun with it as an AR? I love mine as much as the AR's but I wish it had the A1 folding stock.

M1 Garand here .love going to the range. The history that goes with these rifles is what attracts me to these riflles . I would love to own an AR as well.

That is an awesome collection. 03A3 is on my list as well. I could have bought a good one a while back and passed on it. Now I'm kicking myself.

Thanks to my second tour to Iraq to fund the M1's & '03A3 from the CMP when they had alot in stock. The M1917 was picked up on that tour from a guy in S.C.

I read no hostility into any of your posts. In fact, I appreciate the honest questions. If you get more curious, I encourage you to spend some time with your friend who builds them at the range. You might just find you like them too. In fact, you have an open invitation here, should you ever find yourself in my neck o the desert.
Thank you so much, my friend for your understanding and open invitation. I'm glad to see that some of you guys saw that I was not trying to be malicious, only inquisitive. I know this can be a touchy subject, especially in today's turbulent times.

Wow, guess I never realized how much this would bring up politics. I guess I'm a little closed minded thinking everyone thinks like me. Sorry guys....
