How would you say the recoil feels, compared to say, a .45ACP Cx4 Storm?

I've been looking into buying one of these for a while, but I've never fired one yet and the closest thing I can think that I've fired is a Cx4 .45ACP.

I saw a lot of pretty nice carbines of this type at a local gun shop run by a Marine who served in the Pacific during WWII. He has a tattered Japanese flag with Marine signatures all over it.

The .30 Carbine is terms of recoil is little to nothing. It's one sweet shooting rifle. I'd say that the recoil is about the same as a .45 ACP out of a Beretta CX4 Storm.

Reasons is that the M1 Cabrine weighs a little more. But not by much. Get one while you can. They're going up in price.

By the way, I didn't know that you had a Beretta CX4 Storm.

It's not mine, my friend owns one along with a Remington 870 Express Magnum and a Savage .17HMR bolt-action. Lots of fun plinking with that, I nailed a Furby in a tree at 100 yards.

They're also great fun for clearing a range full of deer herders!
