Hi all! Here's the latest video hot off the camera! I hope you all enjoy watching this one as much as I enjoyed making it. If you ever wondered how the M1 would fare in a CQB roll, this video attempts to answer the question. Keeping in mind, many of our grandfathers used the M1 in close-range, house to house applications, I was eager to see how it would do on a tactical carbine course. Take a look, and let me know your thoughts!

Good video, Howard. To the point. Maybe a little thin on plot, but I guess they can't all be Gone With the Wind.  |

VERY nice video... the old M1 performed as expected... the M1 is still a LOT of fire power!!
One comment... when you talked about weight you didn't mention the fact the Army has hung so much junk on their M16/M4s they now weigh essentially the same as an M1 or M14.
If you are taking requests how about shooting the same course with your M14/M1A ... I bet it would really do the job.
Thanks for sharing...

Good point about all the adornments to the M16/M4 and their additional weight. You are the second person to request the M14 be tested on the same course of fire. I was actually contemplating that same thing, so stay tuned and that one may materialize in the future! Howard |

Nice job H.
The fact the M1 came through nicely is no surprise.
The course of fire wasn’t too demanding, I think you could’ve done 90% of it with a bolt gun. (:

I’ve never been impressed with that course of fire. Still, as I said in the opening, the time limits for some of the stages presented a little bit of a challenge. I was somewhat surprised I got all the shots off within the allotted times, particularly the reloading stage. Just think how well I might do if I actually practiced! Howard |
