The Auto-Ordnance M1 Carbine stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of American military rifles. This rifle is a faithful reproduction of the iconic firearms that supported U.S. forces starting in World War II. Manufactured with precision at Kahr's state-of-the-art facility in Worcester, Massachusetts, each carbine exemplifies superior craftsmanship and attention to detail.
At its core, this .30 caliber rifle is built around an 18-inch barrel and measures an overall length of 35 inches. The receiver is crafted from parkerized steel, offering both durability and resistance to corrosion—a nod to the original design specifications that prioritized reliability under combat conditions.
The stock and handguard are fashioned from rich American walnut, providing not only historical accuracy but also a satisfying tactile experience for the shooter. Completing this classic look is a parkerized finish on all metal components, ensuring that it remains true to its heritage while being ready for modern use.
Sight acquisition is facilitated by a blade front sight paired with a flip-style rear sight—features reminiscent of those found on wartime carbines designed for quick target engagement across various ranges. The flat bolt design adds another layer of authenticity and functionality.
This model comes equipped with one 15-round stick magazine, allowing ample capacity without sacrificing balance or ergonomics during handling drills or field exercises.
The Auto-Ordnance M1 Carbine isn’t merely a firearm; it's an embodiment of history reborn through contemporary manufacturing excellence—a worthy addition for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate fine engineering coupled with storied tradition.
