\"Inland<\/a>

The “Advisor,” a nice home defense firearm?\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n

The new Inland<\/a> is announcing a pistol model of their American-made, new-production M1 Carbine. Called the “Advisor,” the pistol is based on a style of chopped M1 and M2 Carbines that were spotted throughout the Vietnam War.<\/p>\n

There was never an Advisor standard, but two elements stand out. Barrels were cut down, with just a bit of muzzle left poking out of the handguard, and the often the stocks were shortened, shaped into bird’s head grips or replaced with vertical pistol grips.<\/p>\n

Inland took a look at these field-modified carbines as well as various commercial Advisors that followed in the post-war period and decided to build a new model as if they were actually building them for military use with proper sights, furniture and a conical flash hider.<\/p>\n

Field-modified Advisors often lost their front sights in the conversion process. That was clearly not a concern for guys shooting down tunnels, but Inland went ahead and left enough barrel to mount a standard M1 front sight on to, which most shooters today will appreciate.<\/p>\n
