[QUOTE="aviator41, post: 2229781, member: 30309"] Well, I'm always open to new information. How about a link for us to peruse that will show the difference between an M1A and an M1A1 other than the carbine version with the folding stock that I mentioned. I always enjoy learning new things! Yes, I saved my post and then edited it. Sorry. Ipads are odd when it comes to forums, so I save often. My apologies. I do think it's fair to say, in his defense, that the M1A1 that is the paratrooper folder you show is incredibly rare and valuable to a collector, prized for it's rarity. the M1A, on the other hand is quite applicable to this thread and taken in the context of the conversation makes perfect sense. Like you, I don't know that I would rely 100% on H&H having supremely knowledgable staff. It would go without saying that the chances are slim to none that they would have an actual historically significant M1A1 in their possession. It is even farther from plausible that an average guy would walk into their store and ask to see an M1A1 and be disappointed that they weren't shown a museum relic that verges on priceless and is coveted by the topmost tier of WWII collectors. It is, however, very much within the realm of possibility that one could walk into H&H (or just about any other gun store), ask to see an M1A1, and be handed an M1A for inspection. frankly, an M1A1 Abrams tank would have been more fun, had that been what he meant. Though they would be cumbersome to lug around while hunting, I would think. [/QUOTE]
