The M2 Carbine is a lightweight, air-cooled, gas-operated semi-automatic rifle that fires .30 Carbine cartridges. It utilizes a direct impingement gas system where gas from the fired cartridge is diverted through a gas port in the barrel to cycle the action. This gas operation allows for rapid follow-up shots while maintaining manageable recoil. The M2 variant also features a select-fire option, allowing the shooter to switch between semi-automatic and fully automatic firing modes.
