Auto-Ordnance makes M1 Carbines in the classic military pattern, and this one is a used example in .30 Carbine. It does not come with a box. Check the photos for the barrel and sights.

A used carbine can save money compared with a new one. Since the design is simple, there is not much to go wrong if the rifle has been kept clean. The wood stock and metal parts will show the history. Look for dents, scratches, and finish wear, and compare them with the photos.

The M1 Carbine is light, easy to carry, and gentle on the shoulder. The .30 Carbine cartridge works for plinking, small game, and defending the barn from pests. Many owners keep one in the truck or by the door. The sights are simple, and the rifle points naturally.

When it arrives, inspect the bore with a light, check that the magazine seats firmly, and cycle the action by hand. Clean it before the first outing. Fire a few magazines of fresh ammunition to confirm that it feeds without trouble. It is sold as described, in used condition. The rifle ships to your local FFL dealer, where the background check is completed.
