Inland US M2 Carbine

After buying my Underwood M1 Carbine early last year, I convinced myself that I needed an M2 as well. Found a few and prices were all over the place. One was $ 800 (missed that one), another one was $ 2500.

Finally while discussing it with my favourite LGS, he looked at me like I was some kind of idiot and said “I’ve got one in the safe, wanna have a look at it ?”.

We agreed on a round $ 1000.- and after some waiting time for the special permit (combined with the M14), I brought it home on Monday. It came with 5 mags and a pouch

I already had a few mags

Funky muzzle brake

Took it to the outdoor 50 m range today for testing, semi auto only. It also ran flawlessly

Now you are just trying to make us feel bad.

Seriously, nice M2. But you should try and build a complete M1 carbine collection of every manufacturer. Wish I had grabbed several of these when USGI’s were very affordable. I just wanted a Winchester and a Rockola but I had too many other guns to buy.
