Full auto Airsoft M2 Carbine.
Quick, someone check and see what cartouche stamp I need to buy so I can make the stock and bump the price up on GB.....
"Rare prototype 1942 carbine with all original IP parts. Starting bid $3000 and Reserve Not Met. Pay with money order only, no exam period and not returns. Will ship within 30 days of receiving winning bidder's check"
Did I write that correctly?????
Actually, I believe it is a Commercial Controls marked carbine:lol:Quote:

another hundred bucks or so and you can get a rack grade from cmp
Wonder if a oiler would fit in it, so you could use a regular sling?
Be nice to try it out.
Thx for posting it.

I have a 13 year old that wants to learn to shoot (and I want to teach) but she knows too much to listen to a thing Daddy says. Airsoft maybe the way to go - at least safety-wise. And since its not a real firearm, I can always grab it by the barrel and use the butt of the stock as a large paddle!!!
Just curious, legality-wise, how close all the selector related parts are to the originals.
I agree that AIrsoft are a great way to get the younger generation into firearms. It is helping counteract the older generation of gun fearers (still younger than us).
When I was a kid in the 50s and 60s, I was a gun nut. After I shot my Postal Inspector cousin's DCM M1 carbine in the early 60s, I was hooked for sure. Once I started working at 14 or 15, I bought those Japanese metal working replica pistols by Nakata. They were the Airsoft of the 60s.
I had a Browning High Power (with detachable shoulder stock), P38, and S&W 19 with a 2 1/2" barrel. They had brass bullets with hollow noses that you put caps in. The hammer drove the cartridge forward to set of the cap, then you worked the action by hand. I had those until about 10 years ago when a box was "lost" during a move.
Wish I was 18 again.Quote:

Look at it this way Mike, you have your whole life ahead of you. Most of us are on the downhill side.
Totally different system with not even a similarity to a real gun (as far as the inner workings). I'd be surprised if a single part could be used on a real carbine.Quote:

As Inland said, it is nothing like a real M2 inside, but it looks real from the outside.
