I was wondering recently if it was possible for Norinco to make some M1 Carbine clone in .30 cal* with a non-res barrel? Would any ppl in the CGN community be intersted?

I'll take an M1 Carbine in 30-30. Build it and I will come for one, maybe two!

The M1 Carbine was a short (hence Carbine) Semi-Automatic Rifle that fired the .30 Carbine (Metric 7.62x33) rimless cartridge. I believe the M1 Carbine was the only rifle ever produced that chambered this cartridge.
The 30-30 you mention, is the 30-30 Winchester Rimmed cartridge, produced initially in the Winchester Model 94 Lever Action Rifle, and other subsequent Lever actions. There was also a Pump Action Rifle. As far as I know, no manufacturer has ever attempted to produce a Semi-Automatic Rifle that would chamber the 30-30.
Norinco would never produce an M1 Carbine in 30-30, however they may be convinced to re-produce the M1 Carbine with a 19" barrel so it is non-restricted in Canada, and legal in certain American States.
Perhaps one day, we can convince the "Antis", that we are the "Backbone of Canadian Society", and not the Enemy.

.223/.556 NATO would suit me!
M1 carbine 18.5" in 7.62x25TT for the win!
