Editing M1 carbine (section)

=== Philippines ===
The government of the [[Philippines]] still issues M1 carbines to the infantrymen of the Philippine Army's [[2nd Infantry (Jungle Fighter) Division|2nd Infantry Division]]{{Citation needed|date=November 2009}} assigned in Luzon Island (some units are issued just M14 automatic rifles and M1 carbines) and the Civilian Auxiliary Forces Geographical Unit (CAFGU) and Civilian Volunteer Organizations (CVO) spread throughout the Philippines. Certain provincial police units of the Philippine National Police (PNP) still use government-issued M1 carbines as well as some operating units of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). In many [[provinces]] in the Philippines, M1 carbines are still a highly valued light small arm. Elements of the [[New People's Army]] and [[Moro Islamic Liberation Front|Islamic secessionist movements]] value the carbine as a lightweight weapon and preferred choice for mountain and ambush operations.

The M1 carbine has become one of the most recognized firearms in Philippine society, with the Marikina-based company ARMSCOR Philippines still continues to manufacture .30 caliber ammunition for the Philippine market.
