M1 Carbine sm

This is a picture of my Isreali Arms International M1 Carbine Model M 888. The light little rifle is a newly manufactured copy of the World War II carbine. After buying the rifle and waiting ten days for me to cool off the state of California gave me permission to exercise my Constitutional rights and pick it up. This rifle was designed to use 15 and 30 rounds of .30 caliber carbine ammunition but magazines of this size are no longer sold in California. Since I had always wanted one of these rifles I bought a handful of magazines years ago and put them away when citizens of the state still had the right to do so. The carbine seems to be pretty accurate grouping about 3” at about 100 yards doing some informal shooting with it.
