The Grady Repeating Arms M-3 Carbine is a selective fire assault rifle designed by Earl Rock and John Grady IV between 1977 and 1985. Currently produced by Grady Repeating Arms, it is in service with all three branches of the Shenandoahan Army National Guard, but has been largely replaced by the more compact Grady Repeating Arms M-3 Carbine.
