Deactivated M2 Carbine SN. 4488 *

Deactivated Rare M2 .30 Cal Carbine. April 1945 Inland production in very good original condition. Latest EU Spec, so moving cocking handle (under spring pressure), moving trigger, fire selector, safety and removable magazine. The M2 Carbine was first issued to US troops in April of 1945, both in Europe and in the Pacific theatre. They did see limited action but were used much more in Korea. everyone talks about its lack of stopping power. Let’s be clear; the .30 carbine round has the same stopping power as a 357 magnum. It is more powerful than a 45 ACP but people tend to overlook this. It also has much greater range, and they were quite accurate. Nevertheless, it is one of the all-time classics from WWII and they were still being issued to LRRP teams and Special Forces in Vietnam. All deactivated weapons sold by D and B Militaria are deactivated in the United Kingdom and hold London or Birmingham proof marks and a certificate stating that the weapon has been deactivated correctly.
