I believe he is asking where he can get an m1a1 stock.

How do you get that from "Can anyone tell me where I can find a repro m1a1 carbine" Seems pretty clear to me The review at Arnies tells you where both the M1 and the M1A1 stock can be found. -G

I have a question. How many rounds do the Marushin Carbine 8mm magazines hold? The 6mm only hold 15 so I was just wondering. Someone has one for sale here locally with a couple spare magazines.

Thanks, he was claiming "I think it's around 30 or so." Which didn't make sense to me as my 6mm is only 15. he didn't respond to several requatests for a more definitive answer then "around 30 or so..."
Definitely makes a difference when you're thinking skirmish weapon. How many times can you load the mag with Bbs on a single gas charge? With my 6mm it's around 4 1/2 to 5 reloads but I doubt it's that generous with the 8mm.
I'm thinking this might be a good candidate for a M1A1.

You're right his question isn't very clear but I guess I was assuming that Chief is the same person as masterchief89 who asked this question just a few days ago:
"can anyone tell me if and how i can make my airsoft marushin m1 carbine into a paratrooper version..please help me!..... "

2ndBat, Yes is it- I have actually been 'toying' with the idea of getting a backup- As for the gas charge, I have only put a few rounds through mine so far- Schmitty may remember how many he was able to put through it- I probably won't get a chance to field it until after winter around here -G

ok....he just put the marushin into a M1A1 stock.gues that what he's looking for.....as for the mag question, the 8mm holds 13.i've gotten three sets of 13 plus a couple with a single fill during the summer time.you just can't try and fire it rapidly.it uses more gas that way.

Chief,
The repro stock is actually made by Beretta- They are available on eBay from time to ime, I did a google search on 'Reproduction M1 Carbine Stock" and found a few- Also try gunbroker.com becasue they have a few on auction occasionally.
Hope that helps!
