Just, BTW, if your Underwood was made at the Hartford plant, my Dad did the tool design for it's manufacture. In early 1941 he was a lead tool designer at ...
M-1 30 cal Carbine value. This is going to be probably a re-hash, however; I purchased a M-1 carbine from J&G Sales in the late 80's. The rifle had been hand picked by a employee from a pallet of others. I then used it for varmit hunting, plinking and as a general Jeep weapon (more bite than a .22) and it served me well for several years.
So I bought a Schuster Adjustable Gas Plug specifically for the M1 Garand for each gun. Neither gun has been shot that much and the operating rod of the Springfield gun has been replaced with a National Match operating rod because it fit the receiver better (done perhaps ten years ago but shot recently since the change over). For the Beretta ...
Blue Sky was a major importer of M1 Carbines and Garands from Korea. Quality of what they imported varied from very poor to very good - but most of what I've seen were the poorer ones. M1 Carbines have always been my favorites - hope you enjoy yours. They are like .22s on steroids. joe45c and sharps4590.
Been using the Blue Bullet sin 45 & 9 for 2 years now and am very happy with them - just ordered another case of each. Load data is just like lead. With some tweaking to my Hornady bullet feeder dies they work fine in those - N.B. you would have to modify the dies to work with anything other than FMJ's.
This is a Winchester Model 1906 (built in 1918, #532XXX, .22 S L LR) and an "expert" model I believe due to the grip and forearm. It seems to be a very used rifle with a good deal of patina that I would like to keep (there are a lot of tally-marks on the barrel). The slide is a bit stiff but probably needs some lubrication.

April 1, 1945 - Easter Sunday arrived with a calm sea and a clear blue sky. The sun was two hours above the horizon. The serene South China Sea was fogged with the ghostly gray mist of the smudge pots. Behind the curtain of smoke, landing barges circled restlessly, waiting. In the distance boomed the heavy naval guns.
The main reason is the large size (diameter) of the dot. Most of the red dots have 3 to 5 MOA dot and while that is fine for fast pickup of handgun targets it is too large for fine target shooting as it covers too much of the bullseye. If you were shooting steel plates or other targets of that size they are great and fast.
