The Chiappa M1 Semi-Auto 18” Rifle – 9mm (Wooden Stock) is a modern replica of the venerable M1 Carbine, chambered for 9mm Luger (9mm P, 9 x 19mm) calibre ammunition. This rifle holds 17 + 1 cartridges using the standard magazine; higher capacity magazines are available.
The venerable M1 Carbine (a.k.a. U.S. Carbine, Caliber .30 M1) is a lightweight, easy to use semi-automatic rifle, originally chambered for the .30 Carbine cartridge. It became a standard rearm for the American military during World War II, the Korean War and the early stages of the Vietnam War, and was widely used by USA and foreign military, paramilitary and police forces. In the post-war era it has also been a popular civilian rearm for recreational use and collecting. Over 6.5-million M1 carbines of various models and variants were manufactured. Despite being designed by Winchester, most of these were made by other companies. The largest producer was the Inland division of General Motors, but the M1 Carbine was also made by contractors as diverse as IBM, the Underwood Typewriter Company, and the Rock-Ola jukebox company.
The Chiappa Firearms M1-series is a fine, modern replica of the M1 Carbine, featuring a blowback system and an adjustable rear sight. The M1 is available as the M1-9 in 9mm Luger, or as the M1-22 in .22 LR. Components are CNC-machined and are interchangeable with original M1 Carbine parts.
The M1-standard metal rear sight, adjustable in elevation and windage, can be removed to fit optical or electro-optical sights. The M1-standard metal front sight is fixed.
The bolt and the 18" barrel are made of matte, blued steel. The trigger guard and magazine guide are polymer.
A wooden stock version and a black synthetic stock version are available.
The magazine is compatible with the Beretta 92 pistol.
The rifle incorporates a standard M1 trigger block (safety catch).
This M1-9 semi-auto rifle has a wooden stock, and is chambered in 9mm Luger.
