i was looking if there was a scoped m1 carbine used in ww2 and the answer was no, there was a scoped carbine but that was the m3 carbine, which greatly disappointed and saddened me since i love the carbines to death
m3 carbine is prety much a m1 or a m1/m2 with a night scope. was done after ww2 in europe.
the m3 was the night vision model. its the same gun. only with infrared sights.
google this:
m1 carbine m84
and read this book:
Peter Senich’s “compleat book on us Sniping”
he describes the M1E7 2.5x sniper rifle model 1943
have some pictures i found over the internet foruns.:

Gold gun or premium when?
good.
a counter to MKB42(H) with scope?
maybe though that is an automatic gun with a scope while m1 carbine is better for recoil than the garand but doesn’t do as much damage
i mean heroes and generals do have scoped m1 carbaines, could be a premium sniper squad either in normandy or other US campgains pherhaps? i dont realy feel it should be a main thing to get but just a fun gun to run araound with
