This video details a rare Winchester M1 Carbine equipped with a first-generation infrared scope, originally intended for close-quarters night operations in the Pacific Theater during WWII. The system, which required a separate power source like a car battery, allowed soldiers to see in complete darkness by illuminating targets with infrared light invisible to the enemy. While only 1,100 Winchester M1 Carbines were made specifically for this integrated scope, the technology was later adapted for use in the Korean War with detachable mounts.
