Does anyone remember the crossman M1carbine?
-
I do.....just looked them up IF you can find them they are going for a priemium (like 130)

had one of those, when i was a kid. beat the living snot out of it playing army with my friends. mine had the plastic stock. i wish i still had it. that gun was a lot of fun.
my dream gun would be a remake of the M1 in CO2 with a fixed barrel and semiauto. combine that with a nylon stock, not the cheap plastic, and crosman would have a hot seller on their hands.

Crosman made the M-1 carbine from 1966 to 1976. It is a replica of the US M-1 .30 cal. Carbine. 1966-67 the stock was made of wood, after the first year the stock was plastic and was marketed as " Crosswood" . The M-1 is a push barrel design based on a Quackenbush design and is the same action as the Crosman 350/3500. It is a smooth bore, spring piston, .175/ BB caliber with a 22 shot gravity fed magazine. Typical value right now is about $150 for the plastic stock and $275 for the wood stock. Original magazines are impossible to find and demand a premium. Sold urethane after market magazines are available. We have these available from time to time. Check us out on the vendor gate Dennis Baker Baker Airguns

I remember the wood stocked version. I sooo wanted one, but my dad got me a 760 instead.

When I was growing up, my best buddy's dad had one. It was the wooden stock. It was the coolest BB gun I had ever seen. I next saw one at the Crosman factory museum area. I never knew they made a plastic stock till a few years ago. They are a great fun gun.

The M1 was a great rifle. Historic. I was one of the last to qualify with it and carry it in bootcamp.
The M14 is a different rifle, and also a fond memory. I heard once, that the Navy fleet marksmen still use the M14. I sure can't blame them. ;)
