Hmmm, a lot of money for a commercial copy of an M1 Carbine that should never be shot............... But who knows, may be a good investment if stuck away in a safe somewhere.

I would love just to have the stock with all 8 signatures. However I do have this one... Signed by Sgt. Malarkey.

Must have been pretty neat meeting him. You have a pretty big smile on your face. Just heard the other day Dick Winters passed.

I would dearly love to have one of those signed Carbines. But finances preclude the thoughts of purchasing one at $2500.00.

My Uncle John was a "Path Finder" with the 82nd Airborne Infantry Regiment when they jumped at Normandy on June 6 1944. He had lots of good things to say about the M-1 Carbine. He said, I killed lots of Germans with an M-1 Carbine and the last time I checked they were all still dead. However his first love for use in combat was the Thompson SMG...

Beautiful gun. Bit much in price but I am sucker for history and I love the story behind the 101st so if I had the money, I would grab one in a heart beat.

I have all of the those guys signatures already so missing out on the M1a1 from Valor isn't that big of a deal. I have the Night of Nights print hanging in my office signed by 10 Easy Co. Vets. (also from Valor Studios)

Certainly one of the highlights of my life was sitting with him and hearing his stories first hand. Especially the one's that haven't made it into print.

Here are a few of the things I was able to get signed by him.

Prop helmet used in Band of Brothers
Carbine stock
E Co. Photo from Austria
101st Eagle print that I got from Bill Guarnere's personal collection.
His autobiography and a photograph.

My son wanted an easy company airborne helmet, so I rigged up one for him from scratch (Stripped old paint off, repainted with cork texture, re-webbed lining to M2 Paratrooper Westinghouse specs, made a "Easy Company" stencil, Lt. Bar, etc):







Anyway, it was something my Son wanted since he was very attached to "Band of Brothers".

Sorry to read elsewhere that Major Winter's recently passed away.
