Interesting, I have owned a M1 carbine since 1968. It rode in the trunk of my police unit until the mid 70’s when it was deemed an outrage for a cop to utilize a long gun. [how times have changed]. Since then it has been a bar it gun, a ranch gun, and a stand by to repel borders gun. It has been totally reliable for the entire time. Couple of points: The weapon was never properly cleared and and the magazine remained in during field strip. The proper way to loosen the screw on the top fore grip retaining band is to use the rim ofa cartridge to fit into the curved screw head. A field bottle is commonly called a canteen and the shovel is an entrenching tool. You are correct that soldiers mixed and matched the items on their utility belt [most did not carry pistols. ] Please keep up what you are doing with the videos, I subscribe and enjoy them very much. I served 9 years enlisted and 26 years commissioned in the US Army / ARNG so I have an automatic reaction to misspoken things so please don’t take any of this as anything but an old soldier undergoing a teachable moment. Take care and carry on.

[@LinovichAkhotmy]

Although I don't think he mentioned it in this video. He's European, so I doubt it's a functioning M1 Carbine. Most likely a deactivated one with the magazine fixed to the receiver. It's nice nice to see people interested in firearms and history overseas. But watching some of his videos it's rather sad how regulations and laws makes most European inaccessible to firearms. Meanwhile I'm sitting in my man cave here, in Nevada, with thousands of live ammo right behind me (many in which made in the 30s-60s) that I don't even plan to keep, most of which, I shoot. It's sad to see how excited he gets, over a few spent casings to add to his collection. We as Americans really can't take our Freedom for granted.

[@jacqueline6475]

Hey History Secrets, you talked about not wanting to use a Thompson because privates didn't really use them, but that's not actually the case! Once close-quarters bocage fighting was encountered in Normandy, it definitely wasn't uncommon to see a few of the designated platoon scouts (there were 2 scouts in each squad) with Thompsons as they scouted ahead of the platoon. In fact, while not really shown in the TO&E or in common depictions of the US Rifle Platoon, this might have been one of the most common uses of the Thompson in the standard US Infantry forces. So yeah, if you want a Thompson (because who doesn't?), go for it! You can definitely still be a nice private, and would be a great opportunity to showcase the often overlooked importance and presence of platoon scouts. Cheers!

[@alanbower1193]

Hi Nick. Congradulations on being a proud owner of a M1 Carbine. Two points on the disassembly. The screw on the front band was designed to use the rim on the base of a cartride to loosen it, not a coin. There is no need to remove the rear trunion. Simply remove the magazine, slide the front band forward, lift up on the barrel and the barrel and reciever will come right out of the stock. This makes it much easier to dissasemble in the field with no chance of loosing parts. BTW. I really enjoy your videos.

[@jeffcalabrese3134]

Hi Nick, I have an original Inland M 1 carbine and I just wanted to let you know that you don't have to unscrew the rear receiver screw. Once you slide up the barrel band and remove the handguard, just lift the barrel and. It will come out of the stock.

[@hareflexlo5979]

[@TylerSnyder305]

I was more worried knowing that the knife wasn't very sharp. A sharp knife Is a safe knife because it's more dangerous to struggle to cut things.

[@tacticalfall4505]

I almost learned that the hard way. Now I keep things sharp to keep things safe

[@G1NZOU]

Agreed, much safer to gently be able to slice through something than struggle to force it through.

That is freaking Kool & the Gang dude. My very first rifle that I bought when I was 20 (in 1990) was an M1 Carbine; with a round bolt. followed by a 98K, then a P-08, then a P-38 & finally an HSC 32. Then I figured out that collecting firearms is damn expensive so I stopped. When my dad passed away I then got an M1 Garand and a 12 gauge trench gun. Keep it up brother, you have an awesome collection. Ooh Rah!
