Auto Ordnance 30 Carbine 75th Anniversary Rifle 18" Barrel Walnut Stock & Handguard OD Green With Distressed Copper Cerakote Finish



After nearly four long years of fighting, members of the United States Marine Corps, Navy, Army, and Coast Guard had accomplished many seemingly insurmountable tasks. Yet in February of 1945, a battle lay before them that would go down in our nation’s history as one of the most difficult victories ever achieved. On the desolate volcanic atoll known as Iwo Jima, a new chapter was written in the history of the United States military- -and in particular of the Marines, who fought tooth and nail for every inch of land against a suicidal foe.

Their victory will be forever remembered, immortalized in the famous photograph of the flag raising on Mount Suribachi. On this, the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Iwo Jima, Auto-Ordnance’s latest historical gun series honors all those who fought there. Each gun in the Iwo Jima Tribute series is custom engraved with images commemorating the battle, and finished in durable Cerakote.

The Iwo Jima M1 Carbine is engraved with battle scenes on the forearm, along with an island map. At the middle, the left stock displays the dates of the battle, and “Operation Detachment”. On the opposite side are engraved “Iwo Jima” surrounding an advancing American flag. The right buttstock depicts the raising of the flag on Mount Suribachi, and features Admiral Nimitz’s quote, “Among the men who fought on Iwo Jima, uncommon valor was a common virtue”. The right side has battle scenes in front of the text “WWII”. Each Iwo Jima M1 Carbine is made entirely in the United States. It is chambered in .30 Carbine, has an 18” barrel, and OD Green with distressed Copper Cerakote finish. One 15 round magazine is included.
