This video debunks the popular myth that David Marshall "Carbine" Williams single-handedly invented the M1 Carbine. Instead, it highlights the crucial contributions of a dedicated team of Winchester machinists and engineers, particularly William Roemer and Fred Humiston. The narrative emphasizes Humiston's exceptional skill and ingenuity when he fabricated a replacement bolt from memory within 24 hours during crucial testing, a feat that ensured the M1 Carbine's success. The video aims to give credit to these unsung heroes of the M1 Carbine's development.
