Auto Ordnance M1 Carbine

[Ebola]

Well I have a hard on for a carbine type rifle at the moment. I was thinking a non restricted Beretta Storm. However I already have enough black rifles.

My only criteria for the carbine is that it's non restricted, robust and cheap to shoot. So im thinking a non restricted M1 carbine would fit the bill nicely.

So my question is are the newer Auto Ordnance M1 carbines available now in Canada any better then the previous years with the bad reviews?

I just ordered the Paratrooper version from Elwood Epps. It was $898.75 and the full woos stock version is $873.75.

Just happened to look at one at Lanz at the silver dale gun club..

It was nice...the wood seemed fat compared to a original

For the price you should be able to find a real wartime m1 carbine for less...but it won't be new

Also...any gun recently made by auto ordnance is much nicer than previously....AO is now owned by Kahr industries-they won't put their name on junk ( wish I could get some of those teeny little Kahr pistols here for CC)

I see on the Auto Ordinance site you can buy the sling/oiler combo the vented handguard and other parts for the rifle. The para folder stock is only $159.00!

I'd be very interested in a review when it arrives - particularly of the stock
