Poor college student. I already own an AR and a couple handguns. I'm looking at a service grade M1 Garand from the CMP or a dedicated .22 AR.
Piece of history or a cheap shooter. Pro's? Con's? Save for something else? This isn't a get both situation (I know, I know.) |

Quoted: Well priced dedicated .22 ARs are going to be around for a long time.Poor college student. I already own an AR and a couple handguns.

This isn't a get both situation (I know, I know.) M1 Garands, maybe not so much. However, the Garand is more to feed, so that is a concern. |

Quoted: Yep, Garand hands down for me...even though it will cost more to feed. Well priced dedicated .22 ARs are going to be around for a long time. M1 Garands, maybe not so much. You won't always (hopefully) be a poor college student. You don't want to look back and wish you should have gotten one "back when they were cheap" |
