Are any units still equipped with the M1 or the M1 carbine? I have always believed that both were finally retired from reserve use by the mid-1970s. I am aware that a few small demonstration and ceremonial units still have Garands (albeit parade guns), but I can’t think of any US unit still equipped with the carbine.

There are no active, reserve, or NG units with WW2 era small arms (e.g., M1 Garand, M1 Carbine). My point was to show standard capacities from the M1 Garand to the present. All of these small arms types and civilian clones will be prohibited and subject to confiscation because they: (1) are semi-auto (selective FA in military versions), (2) have detachable magazines, (3) a capacity of more than 5 rounds.
