I'm really glad you posted this.

Is to a super rare 177 caliber CO2 rifle converted for use as a Training rifle for German M1 Carbine user agencies.

I've looked long and hard for a photo of one of these.

I have a Crosman semi auto CO2 rifle that I've been planning to mount in a relic carbine stock one day.
We have my baby brother's old Crosman M1 carbine spring piston air gun, so I've long had an interest in these sorts of replica airguns.

Theres a line of Japanese made M! Carbine airsoft rifles that are very well made, practically indistinguisable from the real thing.

Thanks for the info

Carbines are a lot of fun and that site is a wealth of information. This is one of my WWII era, Winchester M1 carbines, I know its the wrong stock for it as only the Inlands were made with the paratrooper stocks. Nevertheless its handy and until I find a good Winchester stock for it it will remain as is. It is light to carry, quite handy and frequently accompanies me on my walks. Our woods have a fair number of coyotes and this beast works nicely for taking them down.
