Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Faithfully reproducing one of the most iconic airborne infantry firearms of World War II, the Auto-Ordnance M1A1 Paratrooper Carbine brings authentic military heritage to modern shooting enthusiasts. Originally issued to U.S. Army Airborne divisions during World War II—including the historic 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions—the M1A1 variant was engineered with a side-folding wire stock to allow paratroopers to jump into combat with a compact, quick-handling firearm. Produced in Worcester, Massachusetts by Auto-Ordnance (a division of Kahr Firearms Group), the AOM150 model features a 17 1/4-inch barrel chambered in .30 Carbine, a dark Parkerized military finish, an authentic American walnut stock with pistol grip, a riveted leather cheek pad, and a folding wire buttstock assembly. Combining classic WWII military styling with modern precision manufacturing, this Auto-Ordnance Paratrooper carbine stands as a premier acquisition for military history purists and shooters alike.
This specific example is a factory-new, unfired Auto-Ordnance M1A1 Paratrooper Carbine bearing serial number MC2995 (Model AOM150). Chambered in .30 Carbine, it features a 17 1/4-inch Parkerized barrel, flip rear sight, authentic walnut folding stock w/ leather cheek pad, wire buttstock, and factory black Parkerized finish throughout. Preserved in pristine, unused factory-new condition, the steel assemblies and walnut furniture display immaculate coverage with zero signs of handling. Mechanically, the gas piston bolt action operates with fluid precision, controls engage firmly, and the 17 1/4-inch .30 Carbine bore remains factory-perfect with sharp rifling throughout. Offered complete in its original factory serialized matching cardboard box with matching end-label, factory cable lock, owner's manual, product literature, and one (1) factory 15-round steel magazine, this Auto-Ordnance M1A1 Paratrooper represents a turn-key acquisition for WWII military arms enthusiasts.
