Are new Inland Manufacturing M1 Carbines Maryland legal?

Finding conflicting info.

 

[Doctor_M]

Should be cash and carry.

 

[Reptile]

The photo shows a 15 round magazine, so that would not be legal. Ten round magazines are readily available.

 

[Clifjr]

Not with the magazine but maybe without it?

 

[Doctor_M]

Yes... sorry, should have clarified. Legal with a 10 rounder or no mag. All M1 carbines are legal in MD regardless of configuration.

 

[Trepang]

Thanks.

It a stock pic I found - I realize they 15 rounder can't come with it.

Bought the Auto-Ordnance M1 instead.

A friend has one and loves it and the Auto-Ordnance gets a lot better reviews than the Inland Manufacturing one.

It will go nicely with my 99.9% correct 1943 GM/Inland Bavarian Rural Police M1 Carbine.

As I recall, you can't have BOTH a folding stock AND a flash hider, but otherwise, no problem even with a folding stock ( such as the Choate used by the Israelis).

Even the 15 round mags are perfectly legal to possess and use: just can't acquire them in Maryland.

The M1 carbine is a ton of fun to shoot. But at $1100? Hmm - IDK. That's a tough call.

I will say this though; the M1 Carbine that I have from CMP sure is reasonably accurate for a 1944 vintage crappy looking little carbine (It's an Inland mutt - nothing special). I can shoot off-hand at a silhouette target 200 yards away and they all hit the paper. Sure, that's like 3 MOA (6" circle), but I bet a run of the mill Mini-14 using irons can't so that.

Shooting 3 MOA offhand is nothing to be ashamed of.

Or is that the bull, while you're actual group is 7 MOA? Even that is no cause to be embarrassed.

That’s about my 1942 inland carbine. I can squeeze about 2MOA accuracy out of it by tuning the load, but it’s generally about 2.5MOA. Sweet off hand shooting. A hoot to rip out a 15 round mag at clay pigeons on the 50yd berm. Longer range it does just fine with. It’s stretching it past 200 where it gets dicey, but that is as much me and irons. Unless it’s windy, then it’s the wind and the light bullets :-)

I love your humor!

Not 7 MOA, That was a good day for me. Not the norm

 

[calicojack]

I would imagine a new production M1 carbine can hold it's own against a similarly priced Mini-14. Yes, it's a PCC vs a rifle, but even so.

Try pricing ex military ones. Prices have done up a BIT.

 

[Mdeng]

We have a Paratrooper Model in stock. You can even have the 15 round magazine when you buy from us in VA.

Isnt that the truth, $1k to $1.2k is now "entry" but Id still try to get USGI. Unless you are looking for a camp/truck gun.

I checked out a Auto Ordnance carbine yesterday. When I first looked at it, I thought the receiver was plastic or that new type of black polymer they make lowers out of these days.
It was 950.00 or so maybe 999 when I picked it up. Had a 15 rnd mag and a blonde colored birch/beech stock it seemed.

I confess. I left out the fact that I did use a hasty sling (Jeff Cooper, please forgive me).

Midway had a lot of GI Carbines right now.

CHEAPEST was $1149. And they go up from there. A top rated IBM went for $1999.
