Pictures of M-1 Carbine Display at Alabama Gun Collector Show

[Ablationman]

This past weekend Jim Brandt, Tommy Phillips and I set up a display of M-1 Carbines. Our intention was to provide to the attendees of the Spring Military Collector's Show in Birmingham, Al examples of the M-1 Carbine, Educate, and stimulate interest in this historic weapon. This display included examples of the (Winchester & Inland) Early, Mid, and Late featured. All other manufactures were also represented with examples of the Early and late features of each.
We have been asked by the AGCA to provide a more advanced showing of M-1 Carbines at the March 2012 Military Show. Conversations with advance Carbine collectors has begun with the possible organization of a National meeting in Birmingham at the next years show. This would provide an excellent opportunity for advanced Carbine collectors and other Carbine enthusiasts to gather and share our common interest in the M-1 Carbine.
Work has begun to build our display racks, organize plans for speakers, and develop education format. I will be looking for ideas and help from interested collectors going forward.
As many of you will remember I was one of the principles in the organization of the National M-1 Carbine Show in Birmingham a few years ago. Our team is looking forward to making this an exciting time for all with some interesting changes and improvements.

Collect to preserve,

Doug Yates
