My 30 Carbine story. I was born (late 1961) and raised in a small (then) town in NorCal with a large African American population. When MLK was killed, riots ensued and curfews came quick. I was sleeping over at my best friends whose Father was on the town police reserves. I recall him leaving the house with his Winchester made 30 Carbine. A vision, him with helmet on and gone. Maybe 10 or so years later I took that 30 Carbine into high school wood shop to refinish the stock. Once stripped I found a pretty nice piece of wood that ultimately refinished beautifully.
Was it a reliable shooter?
