Thanks from the Carbine Club

[JimF4M1s (Deceased)]

I'm tired of hearing how bad the CC is from non members. If it was so bad we would all leave.

The CC doesn't say buy a gun to give us information. They ask if you have some or can get information from some you see, they would like to have it to add to the data bank.

I'm a long time member. I haven't bought a Carbine in a couple of years, or seen any new guns in a while. But information is not only guns. Parts, web gear, bayonets, tools, old articles you find. Anything related to the Carbine. I'm sure there a folks who haven't submitted anything for a while.

This information comes back to all of us in some form or another in the newsletter articles. Personally I think the newsletters are priceless. I learn something from almost every newsletter. The last one on late Winchester's was great. I wish they would go back to monthly newsletters so I would get more.

Also, there is NO age discrimination, holy smokes. 80 year olds used them in the WW2, 70 year olds used them in Korea, I (60 years old) used one in Viet Nam. It's just that us older guys have memories and are more interested because of first hand use. Maybe we are trying to relive our younger years, who knows.

If you choose not to join fine. Your loss of valuable information.

If you choose to join, I feel you will be very pleased.
