FAQs for M1 Carbine Mount
A: About 4-5 minutes, once you have removed the hand guard.
A: Yes.
A: NO. None of the mounting screws actually touch your rifle.
A: MAYBE. You may see a small improvement in average group size with some types of ammunition.
A: NO…but it will get warm.
A: NO. There are so many variations of gas block styles on the M1-Carbines that we had to settle on a USGI spec to fit the most units available.
A: Yes.
A: YES, but you need to order the Scout-Mount II. The Scout-Mount II is .001" shorter to fit the barrel band location.
Note: M1 Carbines sold in California will need to replace the barrel band with a GI style, or modify it to fit.
A: We only recommend a pistol scope. They are more compact and have longer eye relief, which allows better peripheral vision. If you use a Scout scope, the shorter eye relief places the rear lens too close to the ejection port. After you fire a couple of rounds off, the oil and powder residue coming out of the port usually fouls your scope lens so badly that you cannot see through it.
A: The key is whether your Universal has a GI barrel or not. The barrel band/clamp may be another issue, but that can be worked around. Take your gun out of the stock and look for the GI markings stamped on it. They would tell you who made it and in what year. Example: "RI-2-45" would mean Rock Island Arsenal manufactured in February 1945.
A: No. The M1 Carbine mount only requires removing the action from the stock.
A: No. Only US Mil-Spec carbines.
A: The M1 Carbine mount weighs 5.9 ounces and is 8.06 inches long.
A: NO. Unless it has been fitted with a US mil-spec barrel.
