M1 Carbine by Alpine Mfg?


Recommended Posts

My first M1 carbine was purchased from Alpine sales from the add in the American Rifleman.

Bought it around 1960. My carbine had a GI receiver, not a new made Nat' Ord. receiver.

As I recall it was a 200K Inland receiver, a brand new Marlin barrel, and an M2 trigger housing and slide, a ratty looking stock.

The receiver was heavily pitted, sand blasted and parked. When fired ,the barrel would come loose and turn.

Traded it off in 1965.

While I got off to a bad start with carbines, I more than made up for it over the years.
