Springfield Armory M1 Carbine Reviews

Very realistic and amazingly accurate for a smooth bore BB gun. I love how it can nail small targets at ranges longer than I would ever have expected. One thing I do is always use Daisy BBs. I measured both Daisy and Crosman BBs and found the Daisy BBs are slightly larger in diameter. I believe this causes a better fit to the barrel and contributes to the accuracy I have enjoyed.

I wish I had the money to buy another one!

This is a quality air rifle that will give you hours of pleasure and catch the eye of any person interested in the weapons we used in World War Two.

Very nice rifle

Buy two of them.lol

Feel like the real thing. Looks and feel good. Light weight. Fun to shoot.

THIS IS A GRRRREAT LITTLE BB GUN.. I HAD SOME TROUBLE UP FRONT WITH THE BOLT SEATING INTO THE CHAMBER.. THE CULPRIT TURNED OUT TO BE THE MAGAZINE FOLLOWER.. THE TOP PART OF THE FOLLOWER HAD SEPARATED FROM THE BASE AND BLOCKED THE BOLT MOVING TOTALLY FORWARD.. PYRAMYDAIR GOT RIGHT TO IT AND ALL IS NOW WELL!! :)

I'D RECOMMEND THAT PYRAMYDAIR ENSURE THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE FOLLOWER IN ALL M1 MAGS BEFORE SHIPPING..

Absolutely nothing at all - junk product beyond a reasonable late model replica.

Buying from this company - Stop selling returned broken faulty items and calling them "refurbished". That is clearly not true.

This is a totally inoperable product. DO NOT BUY "REFERB" products from Pyramyd. They are clearly NOT tested - they receive warranty returns, tape up the box, and resell them. Details: First Co2 - two shots weak, three misfires (BBs falling out of the barrel and a total CO2 discharge. Second Co2 - Would not break the COs canister seal. Third Co2 - Four weak shots, two misfires (BBs falling out of the barrel again), total CO2 discharge and the CO2 cartridge is JAMMED in the magazine. I have other CO2 guns so I know what I am doing. None have been very impressive quality, by this one takes the biscuit. Rubbish.

Accurate detail. Shoots great, very Accurate. Just enjoy shooting it. Perfect companion for Springfield 1911 CO2 pistol. Could not be happier.

The magazine that came with the rifle, the CO2 cartridge would not seal properly. Pyramid Air handle this superbly. Sent me a new mag. Works great.

Just be prepared to fall in love.

Over all quality, wood stock is great, good solid gun

Just wish it had a selector switch from semi automatic to full auto

Just be safe when shooting

Really like the Springfield Armory M1 carbine with wood stock. Already have the M1 carbine with synthetic wood stock. Should have ordered the gun with wood stock originally. It is that much better.

Would order wood stock again in a heartbeat. Would not order the 2 canisters of BBS from Pyramid Air again as both were broken during shipment due to inadequate packing. BBS spilled out all over inside of shipping container.

Everything about this rifle is just like the original

Nothing

The realistic look and feel is great. I've only fired two clips worth, but at appx 10 yds it was pretty darn accurate out of the box while shooting it off-hand.

Nothing with gun itself but if Pyramyd would offer replica accessories for it like bayonet, sling, etc that would be great.

You can find replica accessories for it online fairly easy to give it a more authentic look.

It's a fine replica of the M-1 and a great addition to my collection of airguns...

Nothing, the rifle is well crafted but I think you should have added the shoulder strap ..

It's a great value for the price I am well pleased with it...

Design of my Springfield my m1 carbine bb gun I OWN 8 Of WW2 real thing, to hold it feels good. I now Have one my grandchildren can shoot. Several in my Collection like the real thing thank you.

Front sight was mounted foo centerline. I tapedit off and recounted it. I WOULD like to see target showing hits from the 10 shots for seyup, good PR

Great copies to train children firearm safely Real feel like real thing

Purchased for collection

Come with bayonet

I wait for sales

I love this thing. Feels amazing in almost every way. Shoots well.

would color internal plastic black - see image; for some reason, decided to use bright white plastic within action and looks really bad handgrip seems loosely connected

The synthetic stock looks great but feels like garbage; would invest in the wood stock.

Authenticity. Very true to the original. These make the best pop guns. Put a half inch long piece of wire tie, cut square on the ends, into the bb slot ahead of the bb pusher. This disables the empty magazine hold open so you can popgun this baby. I don't even ever shoot bbs with mine. Pure backyard GI action against your buddy.

Nothing

Great play army gun. I believe the military calls that practice maneuvers. Just like being a big kid.

The carbine looks just like my Inland in every way. I'm happy with the rifle, the magazine not so much. I can't use Umarex c02 at all. Got a box of Crosman c02 and a long handle allen wrench, and I still lose one third of c02 before they seat. I get ten shots out of one magazine then the gas just spews out. I held off doing this review because I thought it was just me. I have several c02 pistols without this problem.

The magazine.

Please let me know if an improved magazine comes available.

Very accurate at 5 to 10 yards, I haven't shot it further than that yet but it hits quarter-sized groups at that distance with rapid fire. Weighs the same as a real M1 Carbine and can be accessorized with a sling and oiler just like a real one. Semi-auto blowback action adds a nice touch of reality, too.

I only get 30 to 45 shots out of one CO2 cartridge, it would be nice if it could get a little more mileage out of a CO2.

Great backyard plinking fun, my son and I both love it and it's great to get outside for an hour or two (and away from the tablet/TV) and learn marksmanship and firearms safety.

This gun feels good! I went with the wood stock & am glad I did. I was also very happy when my real M1 Carbine bayonet locked right on, as if it was made for this rifle. This replica air rifle is that good. I bought it primarily for display and it looks great in our den!

Not sure if this was a factory error, or what? Gun arrived bone dry. No lubricant on any moving parts. The safety was totally inoperable. You couldn't move it...period. I put some lube on it and it did the trick. Safety works. Also, on the 2nd clip, the gun jammed. No lube on any moving parts. I applied silicone gun lube to all moving parts & have had no further issues. Not sure what happened...???

This thing is fun, once you get it going!! You won't regret buying it!

Looks, feel, and functionality.

Just a tiny bit of weight, possibly some cheap metal hidden in the stocks would give it more heft.

This carbine is a joy to shoot and surprisingly accurate with avanti bbs. The shot count is low, but not a big deal. (2 mags full power per co2 on a warm day)

it replaces the real thing with away to shoot a weapon from the past , which you can share with your kids and help to teach them real gun safety

would offer a sling matched to the gun

you will get hooked on the fun of being able to shoot in doors

With the wood stock, the rifle is fantastic, oil the wood a little and it looks like an in-use real carbine, which, to the credit of Air Venturi, it actually is!! This gun is totally satisfying. It impresses both the owner and friends. All the buttons and tabs are first quality. I really like this gun and would buy it again in a heartbeat. I like it!!

The magazine has the weight and feel of a real gun, but does not easily pierce the Powerlet without a lot of twist on the capscrew.

The magazines are difficult to get a seal on the CO2 tube while piercing. I over-tightened one of mine and broke the O-ring retaining seal ring at the piercer. Since I broke it, even though it was failing to seal, i havent tried to get a replacement. Instead, I ordered three more magazines. Since they hold just a few anyway, they will come in handy when shooting this exemplary gun!
