Most of the m2 carbines were actually m1 carbines with auto conversions, so many of the legal carbines in the US have m2 parts, inside, with only the selector switch and a couple parts missing. By looking through all the Second hand m1 parts kits, online, u can find all the missing parts u need. My personal carbine was brought back, after the war, with an m2 stock, with space for the selector.
Ingenious how they modify the weapon by mostly just reworking existing parts. My M1 carbine was crushed to death during the gun buy-back in Australia in 1997. I miss it almost every day, fantastically simple and fun to use.
@@cassidy109 It was a registered firearm. They would have tracked me down like a dog. Actually it was registered in South Australia and I turned it over in New South Wales, and years later the SA government tracked me down demanding proof I'd disposed of the weapon.
These were made long before the days of computer generated schematic type videos. They were very effective in training soldiers who needed to see large detailed parts that could mimic the actual parts and functioning of their firearms. I am sure the Army still has these models somewhere in their vast network of depot storage areas, buried next to that box that contains the prize Indiana Jones was looking for! Lol!
I fired one of these... and its very accurate.. like using a .22 cal air gun... you dont need that stopping power if you can hit them in the head at 150 yards
@NewWaveTH thanks well i watched a vid that said they both fired a type of 30-6 , 30 ot 6, yea 06 well thanks for your input and its still a good weapon for cqb
They tried to use this as the basis for the SCAR mk.16 but they screwed it up by flipping the gas system upside down. I think an enlarged M2 carbine action would make a great assault rifle in 5.56 as long as they kept the M16 style charging handle and trigger group.
This gun is really sick. If they had adopted the 7mm British cartridge, this gun would basically be America's AK47. Stoner might have developed an entirely new assault rifle--but if they had kept the 7mm, the M16 would be far more effective than it is today.
12 years later and the armed forces started to dabble with the .277 fury. Back in the old days, I was an advocate of .30 calibers and I must say your post aged well.
The M2 was probably one gun that could have benefited from a 3-shot burst-mode. It is also fascinating to learn that in closed-bolt autos, the process for automatic fire is actually more complex than semi-auto fire.
If .30 Carbine was just slightly more powerful with say 100-300 ft/s more speed at the muzzle, it could be considered an intermediate cartridge, and thus the M2 Carbine would be the first assault rifle of the US. As is, the M1 Carbine has been taken successfully to 250-300m. That's a stretch though, so the M2 Carbine doesn't have the accuracy of the AKM (Has been taken to 300-400m), but it's lighter and has more controllability.
That is... BRILLIANT! I don't know about "plenty of firepower" in the .30 carbine but it is much better than the 8mm Japanese type 100 smg. Heck, the 9mm is criticized for it's stopping power but the Japanese made it just a bit weaker. I've fired the M1 carbine but this thing looks like a lot more fun. :)
Every time someone publishes a post about the M1 Carbine, here come the lonely who need attention desperately and start to yak yak yak some delirious comments comparing the Carbine to FALs, M16, M1 Garands, M14 and other totally unrelated small arms. Why to thye stop there, why not compare to a 105MM Howitzer it sure has more stopping power. M1 Carbine replacement/backup for HANDGUNS. HAND ...GUNS , capisce ?
yes and it's cartridge is definitely powerful enough to qualify as an Assault rifle. the .30 carbine out of a M1 Carbine have 1,310J of kinetic energy. the New AK-12 firing the 5.45x39 has 1,390J of kinetic energy just 80 more and it qualifies as an assault rifle while .30 carbine is a shade behind so it definitely qualifies aswell. PDW's like the HoneyBadger and SCAR PDW are much weaker than the m2 carbine due to their short ~6inch long barrels compared to the M2 carbines 18inch and as a result of this both of them barely get over 1,000J of muzzle energy. .30 carbine is effective up to 300 yards aswell. in this video, he scores 15/25 hits at 300 yards and if you only include the last 2 since he admitted the first was his fault 11/15 for between 60-73% accuracy which definitely qualifies as effective. ruclips.net/video/2ozvYaxr6iQ/видео.html
Yea but it also would need stopping power ? Ive herd stories of people shooting an m1 and the bullets nocking people down but they get back up , the setting was winter in korea and enemy forces were heavy coats. Do you think the 5.56 is the best caliber to do the job ? or would the 30-6 be better ?
Yes it was. Not widely used, but mostly in the closing days against Japan. In the Korean War, it was the most widely used carbine, before the M16 rifle replaced it and other rifles in the Vietnam War.
I love these old training videos and the paper "cartoon" instructions are even better.
Wow... I'm glad to see the live firing of first version of type 100 SMG!
I like that the lever allows the bolt to fully go into battery before the hammer falls, very simple but effective.

You should have never turned it in, but rather hidden it!

That makes me sad knowing a historical firearm was crushed
Moral of the story is NEVER register any tool with the government
Why would you sell your gun back to the government? How much did they pay you? I have a paratrooper model
The M2 Carbine was issued in limited quantities to the point it was a rare sight during World War II, but it was very widely used in Korea.
...beautiful little badass rifles...carbines rule in inner-city work I think
I like how they made an M2 GIANT Carbine for demonstration!

Amazing stuff. Can't believe someone found this and then put it up here. Great.
Good, light and full automatic firearm.
I fired one of these... and its very accurate.. like using a .22 cal air gun... you dont need that stopping power if you can hit them in the head at 150 yards
awesome video. no one makes films like that anymore. ... that Japanese rifle at the end was very interesting. i've never seen it before.
Yo Craig that's one awesome masterpiece you got there
awesome piece of technique this rifle got! thumbs up!
I was thinking the same thing. Imagine finding that giant mockup at a garage sale or whatnot.
@pelle1243 they first started appearing in early 1945 (april ish). conversion kits to allow the m1 to fire auto also came around that time.
Very nice presentation of the working parts .
these old cutaway guns are so damn cool man
this is awesome.
Wow. What a genious design.
Great Video❤
Amaaaazing!
Thanks for your input :) Guessing you never fired an m2 , since its smaller ? was it more fragile to damage , mud , water , etc. ?
Muito bom, simples e funcional

interessante esse sistema! good
That is a BIG carbine. I'd like one to set on a tripod and mount pointing toward my front door.
It’s not a big carbine, it’s a very tiny Tech Sargent.
@@badmoon5249 I did not consider that possibility! I've been a fool. T_T

I'm sure the giant model is probably made of Styrofoam or wood, but it would still be awesome to have one of those sitting around in my gun room...
This is historic videos that every post in youtube
That's a really big gun.

@Howdy and more controllably I believe, though I've never shot .30 carbine or 7.62x39
Or if they'd done away with Garand's antiquated clip loading system on the M1 and gone straight to detachable box magazines of any size.
these mechanisms look so fuckin brilliant.. Wapons are the most amazing machines I've ever seen.
Fuck yeah...
I like to think of it as a big SMG, though not quite an assault rifle.
@ollieproductions1 likely this film was made for armorers. maybe infantry... maybe...
Where'd you get these old US Army training videos? I can never find them.
I would like to see someone make a setup like this for the an94
Parabéns 👏👏

Interesting since an 8mm translates to .32cal
thanks , i wonder how accurate it was ? or is and now that i think about it yea that magazine looks small
My favorite weapon of WW2 and Korea.
@Pokemonscareme LOLOLOLOL
Inner monologue:
"Don't fuck up - don't fuck up - don't fuck up - don't fuck up!"
I want this giant model.
Very good
this is what my friend used in WWII
I only love Americans ( the old Americans) by this. * My English is so bad

Super inteligente matemático cómo esté personaje ha esté si se le puede llamar personaje superior
but iv heard things like "head shots at 150-200 mts in ww2"
m1 garant, m2 marushin,mis armas preferidas
Love 40's 3D animation lol.
Also, the clip/magazine denomination confusion goes back to the 40's? I thought that was something much more recent.
The enbloc of the Garand M-1 is a "clip". The magazine is what an M-1/2 Carbine uses.
The clip to magazine was technically still ongoing as the Garand was still in service
A PDW before PDWs were cool
Can someone please tell me when the m2 was put into service? Thanks.
neat
@NewWaveTH S&W made the 1st .357 magnum in 1935
lol... I think they edited this video so people wouldn't start converting their m1's.
was the m1 too acurated as sone people are saing ?
haha i bet they used this vid for ppl in WW2!!!! cool
where is the rest ?
Anyone know Name of this kind of video.. So i get more video!
2:21 *The trigger is still deppressed!*
execuse me, why is this video white and black? Is it very old video?

I guess it's just me but a lot of the audio was blank
It was blank.
F-U stg44- this is the real "first assault rifle "
So dose this count as an assault rifle ?
no.. it's a fully auto carbine... the rounds it fires are too small for an average assault rifle
interesting statement, considering the ammo M1 and M2 use are roughly 7.62x33; not much different from the Soviet 7.62x39 used in the AK.
yes, because it uses an intermediate cartridge and has selective fire
Assault is an action, not an object. People commit assaults, not guns.
yes
and it's cartridge is definitely powerful enough to qualify as an Assault rifle.
the .30 carbine out of a M1 Carbine have 1,310J of kinetic energy.
the New AK-12 firing the 5.45x39 has 1,390J of kinetic energy just 80 more and it qualifies as an assault rifle while .30 carbine is a shade behind so it definitely qualifies aswell.

.30 carbine is effective up to 300 yards aswell.
in this video, he scores 15/25 hits at 300 yards and if you only include the last 2 since he admitted the first was his fault 11/15 for between 60-73% accuracy which definitely qualifies as effective.

Yea but it also would need stopping power ? Ive herd stories of people shooting an m1 and the bullets nocking people down but they get back up , the setting was winter in korea and enemy forces were heavy coats. Do you think the 5.56 is the best caliber to do the job ? or would the 30-6 be better ?
Some people just dinae go down after being shot with anything short of .50bmg
He called it a clip.
assult rifle? i mean it fires the um 30-6 right
No.

Why is this censored? As if it were a secret how to make an automatic weapon?
its censored cause of RUclipss stupid guidelines
My copy of the video has deteriorated. Any ideas?
Use this one instead.

Why was I recommended a 10 year old gun video on my gaming video watching RUclips channel
