m1 garand

While the Garands love the FMJ rounds what commonly available factory made 30-06 feed, fire, and cycle the Garand action. I'm talking about bullets and charges best used for hunting or even defense.

On Saturday I posted the following question over at the CMP forum. The thread got 350 views, and not one answer, so I set about answering the question for my self. This is what I came up with. I learned a good bit of useful info. Well, having done a lot of research the last day or so, and...

I have an M1 Garand and an Ar-15 stripped receiver. Im debating whether I should invest in a new Stag upper for my ar, or if I should just buy 30-06 ammo (I can get a lot for $600). What do you guys think. In California we are limited to 10 round magazines and bullet buttons, so no 30 rounders...

I posted this in the Firearms General Discussion forum but I'll post it here too. I welcome your thoughts/input. Last week I decided to get an M1 Garand with my tax return. I went to CMP and looked at their Service Grade SA rifles. I had pretty much made up my mind on one of those until I saw...

A good friend of mine recently gave me an International Harvester M1 Garand as an early wedding gift. The dealer he got it from stated it is in "shootable" condition. The barrel (almost completely smooth bore) and stocks (cracked and chipped) definately need replacing. Everything else looks...

Okay, I strongly encourage those with specific knowledge and well gleaned opinions (of the non-emotional kind) to add to this as we go. First of all the definition of the acronym "MBR." MBR = Main Battle Rifle or Modern Battle Rifle (It really depends upon who it is you are speaking with...

Lets talk about a real Manly Man's Main Battle Rifle. First of all for you bigsally types (whimpy girly guys in two sizes to small cammie short shorts, xs cammie tee shirt, chest wig and attack poodle named FIFI. The M1 Garand weighs the same as a standard issue AK-47. Here are linked third...

Is $650 a good price for a M1? It's in a classified's type periodical that I find in local convenience stores. It says "Good Condition." Seems like a low price for a M1 Garand.

I'm planning to buy either one with my tax return next year .I'm kinda leaning toward the garand what do yall think
