ribit,
how long have you had the M1? That's an interesting weapon.
Did you ever have opportunity to fore an M16 per chance?
A good 9mm glock or a Beretta, 15 rd. clip, semi-auto with hollow point large grain for slowness and greater bullet fracturing inside the body does quite well also and is easy to handle, no kick, and deadly.
I prefer these over the shotgun inside the house but outside with a mob a street sweeper is one option.
A good one too.
Anyway, I was interested in the story on your M1 Carbine. WW 1 vintage?
the best,
micro...
