    I am in the market for an original WWII carbine. Before I buy, I need to get an education. Can anyone recommend a book or two? Is there good info available on the net somewhere? Any info will be greatly appreciated.

    My buddy offerd to sell me a M1 Carbine for $420. It is not a GI model, but it uses GI parts(all except Barrel and reciver) I have not looked at it yet. So I don't know it's condition. Assuming it is in good to great condition, is this a good deal?

    PS: Sorry to anyone who read my previos post, if you replied to it you do not need to reply again here if you don't want to.
    My wants/needs/desires, are all different from yours. I know I would hold out for a "true G.I." model, just for the sake of knowing what I had. Gun buying from those you consider friends could also turn out badly........


    Thanks for the advice. It will not be taken lightly.

    Well go look at it. Shoot it. If it is what you want, and it works, at a price you are willing to pay then how can you lose?

    I bought a Universal about a decade ago for I think just under $300. I did not know about the bad reputation that Universal had at the time. Well mine runs great and while it is not a USGI I would not sell it cheep unless I had to for some bad reason.
