Whats a good low-power scope for M1 Carbine?

Post by ShortMan »

Its the Kahr/Auto-Ordnance version, already has the rail built in. I'm not keen on red dot scopes, just want a basic low magnification scope for short range use (under 100 yards).

Take a look out on ebay for the scout scopes

I just did and there are several out there that looked really good

I just bought a Nikon P223. 4" of eye relief.

PM 2k05GT... he bought one for his M1 just a couple weeks ago. It was really clean.

I would pick up something like this. http://swfa.com/Bushnell-1-4x24-Trophy- ... 48386.aspx

Unless you want something different. The 30carbine is not much use past 100 yards on game. You can plink as far out as you what with it. Just had to sell my M1carbine but I sold it to a good friend and I know I can shoot it anytime I want.
