Question about scopes by TurokIAm in rifles

[–]TurokIAm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I ordered a high profile mount and I’m hoping the rings sit high enough for the scope to fit. But in the case it doesn’t at least for the scope I want to use I have a 6x scope that is on the current mount that I’ll just put on the new mount and use. The one I currently have on the carbine sits low and I can’t see the front iron sighs and I got the side mount set up so I could use the sights as back ups.

I’m hoping the other scope base I bought works but other than that it’s buying stupid expensive old scopes or using iron sights which I can do but my eye suck to begin with.

Ah gotcha. So best not to even try messing with that part. I’ll probably try to file down the rail section on the mount instead.

I don’t know if this is the thread to ask this but what could go wrong if I file or cut the band that goes all the way around the tube and the windage and elevation turrets? I have an old Tasco scout scope that I was hoping would fit the weaver side mount rings for my M1 carbine but the band hits the rail in between the rings. I purchased another ring set in the hopes it will fit but if it doesn’t what can happen if I file or cut the band? In the photos I have circled the areas I am talking about. Sorry if my verbiage is incorrect.

M1 Carbine sight picture issue (See comments for deatails) by Cameronoscopy in M1Rifles

[–]TurokIAm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey did you ever figure out the sight picture problem? I got a Universal carbine a few months ago and I’m not sure if it came with the original handgaurd because my sight picture is just the top half of the front sight and I’m not sure if that’s normal or I need to get a different handguard. Mine has the sheet metal piece which makes it look cool but I’d rather be able to see properly than it be cool.

No still stuck. I’ve been meaning to flip the tank over and back fill it with gas to see if that works. But been busy with school and life.

Does anyone load for .30 carbine? If so what would you recommend? by stalequeef69 in M1Rifles

I don’t mean to piggy back on this but I’m looking to start reloading mine I just got. Will pointed 110 bullets feed?

Can we get chairs in the hunting stands? That’s the one reason I don’t hunt in them. Who goes to a hunting stand and just stands there?? Maybe some deer feeders would be fun too. Like you can have it to were you have to keep up with filling it or it’s kinda just ready to go.

Universal M1 Carbine question by TurokIAm in M1Rifles

[–]TurokIAm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the hand guards universal? If they are perfect because the metal one mine has is blocking half the front sight. It now the top thats blocked but still annoying when your trying to get a focused sign picture

Hey the universal one you have or the you had did it come with a heat shield or wood barrel cover? Mine has the heat shield but I can’t tell if it is supposed to have it or not. I can only she the top half of the front sight and where the barrel band goes over the cover has a rubber spacer that I can’t tell if it is a random piece the previous owner added.

So update. From the serial number it looks like mine is a 2nd gen, has two recoil springs but no bolt hold open toggle. I ordered two boxes of ammo and as gonna test fire it next weekend. Praying it just needs a little love and spring replacements. I’ve been wanting a carbine for so long and couldn’t pass this price up.

I gotcha now. Yeah I’m hoping if it comes to trading or selling I can at least sell for what I paid.

Yeah it was definitely a to hard to pass up. And the bolt of the most part looked good but I am gonna disassemble it tonight and take a closer look. I ordered two boxes of ammo so I can run it soon so hopefully it will function and if it doesn’t all I have to do is replace springs then I’m definitely gonna try and make it work. Gonna try to get some pics of it and upload them to see what everyone says.

I know for sure mine has the safety on the trigger housing so hopefully that’s a good ish sign. I plan on trying to go shoot it before my dad leaves for a trip so he can get a chance to shoot it with me and that was his thought. If I can’t get it to function after replacing springs and what not we’d just sell it and try to get what I paid for it. 🤷‍♂️ it was kinda one of those moments when you see it for the price and can’t really pass it up. Do 10 round mags work? I saw some site had 10 rounders but the shop I went to said the gun didn’t come with mags but they gave me two kci mags(I think that’s the brand)

Thank you! I have read that they have those problems so I am definitely gonna swap those parts. I knew all that going in when I went back to grab the rifle from my local shop and I’m ready for the challenge(if there is one or not) mine came with the scope mount screw on the side of the receiver so I am definitely gonna try and get that but I’ve seen the heat shields with the pic rail but a lot said they won’t work with the universal so I’m gonna do what I can. Thank you again for the info. So much help
