    Hey I believe this is legit. The rifle belonged to AM not carried in combat. It was one of his carbines that he gifted to a friend. Now the question is ......does a M1icon carbine owned by AM warrant a ten thousand dollar price tag with provenance? I bet it does! Regards, Rick.

    I was trying to find out about George D McIvor's DFC and can't find him? Not sure where he was from?

    There was something else, or maybe it was this rifle, that came up a few years ago as belonging to Audie Murphy, anyone else recall what it was?

    I think it is legit. I read about the incident somewhere, years ago. I remember that I read Audie Murphy gave a friend one of his M1icon carbines during the Watts riots. Apparently Audie owned several, as he really liked the carbines that had served him well in Europe.

    First,
    Thank Topaz for the link
    Be nice if this is true,
    We do know AM was heavy in the horses......... I know that feeling

    Being a carbine you just can't help but fast glance and see...
    The crack under the stocks right rail
    Brass pin in the hand guard
    The trigger housing looking like it's gonna fall out from under the stock
    Frt sight pin backing out to the right
    Red sealed primer pockets!!! Corrosive ??

    Hey and Bob USGI
    Friction tape still works great on my hockey sticks ;-)
