19 May 2024 Garand Picture of the Day

[oldfoneguy]

M1 carbine, on the other hand, is a different story. I have an NPM that I can shoot lefty just fine, and an Underwood that pops me square in the forehead every shot, unless I shoot it right handed.

My Underwood stacks the brass rather nicely about even with the muzzle 5 feet away for the most part. My Glock 21 however spews t-shirt collar gap seeking molten brass. It consistently gets whoever shoots it. I mostly use it in the colder weather now.

So apparently loading isn't an issue for you guys like I was told. I guess everyone has their own experiences with an M1.
