I picked one up Friday at the Badger military show, I have had them before. This is a gun you either like or hate, I have spoken to Vets who used it in combat and loved it, and some who hated it.

I bought mine for when the Zombies/civil unrest starts, I have ARS and M1A and a garand and other military rifles, but I find the little carbine handy around the house. I normally keep a stock puch with 2 loaded mags and 2 30 rounders in a jungle clip handy just in case.

I have a friend a Korean war marine who uses one to patrol his property up north, he has had some interlopers and poachers and he keeps the same set up except his is in a paratrooper stock. He used one in combat and liked it.

I do know a Korean war vet who was in an artillery unit that got over run by the Chinese and he shot an enemy soldier several times with a carbine with no appaent effect, he then picked up an abandoned Garand and saw puffs of cotton on both sides of the other soldier before he went down. he kept the Garand after that.


I plan on several uses for the gun, mostly fun but protection as well.
