[@genestangel9674]

Yes! A great presentation showing all the nuisances! The little "angles" that are required, the "twist-just-so" details that all work PERFECTLY! Thanks! Gene

[@HistoryinFirearms]

You are welcome! Glad it helped!

[@michaelwelsh798]

Perfect timing! It's time to field strip and clean. Excellent presentation.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks!

[@gabrielmorales6412]

I was cleaning my grandfathers M-1 carbine for the first time to shoot it in his memory. Thank you. Very helpful video

[@HistoryinFirearms]

I'm glad I could help keep your grandfather's memory and your family history alive!

[@fraiday7292]

Very helpful video. I was recently given a Winchester M1 Carbine that my grandfather had bought years ago, now I know what needs to be done for disassembly. You have a new subscriber here.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks you and glad it helped! We have several other videos on the carbine you may also like, including one published today! 👍

[@analogludite9575]

Great Stuff! I haven't had my carbine apart in a long time, so the refresher of the fine points of parts alignment and angles were helpful. The style of presentation reminded me of Parris Island. One thing I consider part of the function check - with the bolt locked back, point the muzzle down. Invert the weapon to muzzle up. You should hear the gas piston drop to the end of it's travel. I do it before the safety + trigger check. 😊

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! That's interesting on the function check. I haven't heard that before, but I tried it, and you can definitely hear the movement. 👍

[@MegadethTillDeth]

Great stuff. Just picked up an Inland from '43. What a fantastic piece of history that I look forward to passing on to the future generations. Very much enjoyed the period styling of the narration.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed! The M1 is great for sharing as anyone can enjoy it!

[@bumpercoach]

very good but the oiler/sling slot may be too tight to remove as shown so youll need to undo that end from the buckle to slide it out

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks

[@Whitpusmc]

Really good demonstration, many thanks!

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! You are very welcome!

[@chuck1388]

Thank you so much for great video, which gave me sufficient confidence to disassemble, clean and reassemble my M1 Carbine. Thanks again!

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Awesome, good job! The carbine isn't the easiest thing to disassemble. Glad I could help.

[@TherapeuticDriving]

Great quality video! Thank you for this piece of history!

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!

[@billbrick54]

Excellant detail, brilliant camera work. Key fit of tabs is crystal clear. I have seen many well-meaning videos of carbine field stripping that are useless due to poor focus/lack of zoom; they make it seem easy but you cannot repeat the slight-of-hand, especially with the recoil slide not in exactly the right spot. This is the only video you need.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed and found this helpful!

[@DontThinkso-kb9tc]

Just picked up my first m1 carbine. Its a reproduction it runs flawless. Sure is a handy and sharp little rifle. Thanks for this

[@HistoryinFirearms]

You are welcome! You will definitely enjoy the carbine.

[@F-5E3_Tiger_II]

ive said this before, but you deserve waaaayyy more subscribers

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks, I appreciate it!

[@internaman]

This was a great review and instruction. I think I’m ready to give it a try. Thanks so much for sharing this video. 👏😉

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! Glad I could help. Give it a try, I think you will be just fine.

[@M1car-bean]

Perfect video. Love it

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed! At some point maybe I can get my hands on a M1A1 for a video.

[@jeffadams9807]

Great Video, Now I Just Need The Rifle, lol...

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! The hunt for the rifle is part of the fun 😁

[@alancarr3381]

Thanks for the video!

[@HistoryinFirearms]

You're welcome!

[@blorph1]

Thank you for making this wonderful, informative video. It worked great. On my Inland, the oiler came out extremely hard. Didn't want to but had to use a hammer and punch and hammer it out from behind. Didn't want to shave the slot it goes in so had to hammer it back in, also. Thanks again, sir.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thank you and thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed. The oiler slots can definitely be a bit tight sometimes.

[@Russianpaintrain]

and yet people still over complicate this simple matter , well done.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

With just a little know how and a cartridge it can easily be done. Thanks!

[@elijahjackson7125]

Hey man, I think the way you set up your 1907 sling could be improved so that when you put the sling in a double loop you don’t have that extra piece of leather catching you up

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks for the input! The method demonstrated is certainly not the only way to set up the sling. This is the way described in the US Army Field Manuals addressing the sling though. A separate video with alternative options may be a good idea though.

[@jbvaleroslawoffice6664]

Very helpful

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Glad to hear!

[@johnadams1416]

Well Done thanks

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! You are welcome!

[@shlomster6256]

Nice!

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks!

[@fabriciano7145]

Hey Thanks for the video it was on the money

[@HistoryinFirearms]

You are welcome! Thanks!

[@Pyrichia]

I watched this three times so I can look like a wizard when it's time to show my buddy how to field strip and clean his rifle.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Now you are a pro! 👍 Thanks for watching!

[@Carolinaishome]

Wow! Way better than the video I made! Very professional

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Um, thanks! Wasn't intentionally trying to outdo yours. 😁

[@Carolinaishome]

@@HistoryinFirearms no really, your videos are great. Keep it up!

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks, will do!

[@acm0332]

Do you have a video of the proper lubrication technique? Where and when would this be done if not during reassembly? Great video, thanks

[@HistoryinFirearms]

I have not done any Cleaning or lubrication video. Maybe in the future 🤔

[@acm0332]

Thank you. Would love to see it. Especially using grease points@@HistoryinFirearms

[@houmvong]

Supper clear teaching. Thanks I will clean mine soon. Oh ! Where can I get more ammo? Thanks.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Thanks! Sorry I can't help in the ammo 🤷‍♂️

[@davidfoster8172]

fantatstic video. question😮 though is how😢 you determine correct sling positiin before inserting the oiler. if its newer, how do determine at what point the oiler should be put nto the loop

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Depends on how tight you want the sling but the sling is adjustable. Have you checked out the Training Film on the sling?

[@quantumkids9659]

Do you have a video on cleaning the M1 Carbine?

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Have not done any Cleaning videos. This is in part because a lot of these old firearm manuals are pretty generic on cleaning, there are much better tools available now, and everyone seems to have thier own way of cleaning guns they think is best. You are not the first to ask about cleaning videos though so maybe I should start thinking about it though. 🤔

[@jeffshootsstuff]

Great video. Is there a reason you say "thee" for "the" every time? As in "thee handguard" and "thee lower loop"?

[@HistoryinFirearms]

I guess I just talk funny 🤷‍♂️😁

[@jeffshootsstuff]

@@HistoryinFirearms Fair enough. :D

[@gmanm1907]

Do you know if a wood hand guard is compatible with a metal hand guard. I’ve got a later carbine with a metal hand guard but I wanna replace Emmy metal one with a wood

[@HistoryinFirearms]

I would think they attach the same but don't have any experience with the metal commercial handguards. Presuming all the other parts are USGI.

[@kumarananthiananthi9080]

Where r u training center

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Not sure what you mean.

[@Squib1911]

Looks fairly simple.

[@HistoryinFirearms]

Yeah it's not bad once you know how to do it. 👍

[@mutiaraterpendamchanel5564]
