Made by the “Inland Division” of GENERAL MOTORS

Here we have an Inland U.S. M1 Carbine Semi-Automatic Rifle, manufactured in 1943 at the Inland Division of General Motors in Dayton, Ohio. This .30 caliber semi-automatic rifle was first used by the United States Armed Forces on October 22, 1941 and Inland Division was the first of 10 manufacturers to receive an order two months later in November of 1941, and was one of the only two still producing carbines when the war ended in 1945. Of the 6,110,730 carbines made of all types built during the war, Inland made 2,625,000, or 43% of the total. Despite having similar name and appearance, the M1 Carbine is not a carbine version of the M1 Garand rifle. They are different firearms and use different ammunition.
