M1 Carbine Grenade Training
Training Soldiers with a M1 Carbine with a M8 Launcher on a Tank...Nice Website with Old Footage and Information about how many Soldiers were issued a M8 Grenade Launcher and just incredible footage of WW2, Korea and Vietnam.
HD Stock Video Footage - U.S. soldiers demonstrate the operation of grenades mounted on M-1 Carbine grenade launchers in the United States.

M8 launcher
Pyrotechnics worked better for the carbine than rifle grenades. The M8 was not authorized for use with the M1A1

I think it would be impossible to have one on a M1A1 Stock with the Lever and Range finder on it...Thank You Jim (BAR) for the 1st Pic..

The recoil was so harsh that they broke lots of stocks. I wonder if that would be attributed to anchoring the butt on the ground. If fired from under the arm it might not have the same effect but would be a hog to hold.
