I’ve been unable to get some good photos, but I’ve had this over a week and haven’t posted on it yet:

Auto-Ordnance M1 by Kahr Arms

I was checking out the used gun section at a local store when I happened upon this. It was only lightly used and at a great price, so I couldn’t say no. It’s the first time I’ve ever bought a gun “on a whim” without loads of research and lots of thought. However, I’ve wanted an M1 for a long, long time and had already checked out the Auto-Ordnance models. Although I still plan on picking up a GI surplus M1 at some point, I also wanted a reproduction to shoot without worries about trying to keep it in condition.

The ventilated upper handguaurd (complete with totally evil bayonet lug) and the adjustable rear site were added by the previous owner. Next stop will be to pick up some additional mags (it only came with one 15-rounder) and a sling.

I’ve wanted an M1 Carbine since before I was really into guns. Awesome.
