As of 1 hour ago I am the proud owner of a 1945 vintage M1 Garand. What a fine firearm. I can't wait to take it to the range.

Another nice surprise when I arrived at home with it, my order of 700+- rounds of ammo had arrived from Ammoman! Now I need to be at the range this weekend.

What a great day!

ENJJOOOYYYYYYY!!!! Nothing shoulders like a Garand. I've been doing an INTENSE bedding job on one in my spare time for the better part of a year now and as it comes together I am so amazed at smooth shouldering that the Garand possesses.

I couldn't belive the accuracy on mine straight out of the box. An amazing rifle to shoot. Be prepared though, it tends to draw curious people. Last time I went to the range, everyone wanted to shoot mine.
