I'm sure there are hundreds of different opinions on the effectiveness of the M1 carbine. My father was in 4 campaigns of the European theatre and he would not carry the M1A1 carbine issued to him because of the lack of stopping power. He either used the M1 rifle or Thompson SMG. Mostly the Thompson.
