Our Assessment:  Nothing is cooler than guns and motorcycles.  Iver Johnson specialized in manufacturing both.  Created by someone with an affinity for cool bikes and awesome guns, Iver johnson began creating copies of original weapons worthy of recreation such this M1 Carbine.  The M1 carbine was revolutionary for U.S. forces during WW2 as it was lightweight and carried most of the same capabilities infantry rifles brought to the table of war.  This model of the carbine was amongst the last frames produced at Johnson’s New Jersey facility before the factory was moved. This carbine is indicative of the M1A2 Paratrooper model, and has a folding stock. Grab up this excellent little carbine today!
