Saginaw M1 carbine

[Mikesm44]

Hello. I am very happy to say I have finally found and purchased my first USGI M1. I currently have two National Ordinance M1s as well as an Auto Ordinance. The one I just bought is a Saginaw. Looked it over, and as far as I can tell almost all the parts are SG. My only complaint is the gas piston seems to be locked up. I will get it opened up and take a look at it probably tomorrow, but I'm not expecting anything bad inside. It seems like it is just dirty or has been sitting for the last 30 years. Let me know what you think.

I'll take more photos tomorrow or after I get it all cleaned up.
