Well, actually I'm a foreign national not a US citizen yet.  And I don't have a Garand.

But I'm working on both (citizenship and Garand).

I won't buy one because it has all that brown crap all over it.

I don't have one because my wife has a WWII Springfield Garand (matching, even has an uncut op rod).  She got it from the DCM back in 1993 or so for about $250.  But, once they are imported again I will get one for myself.

It's almost sad when I think back to the days when I could have got one at a Sears or Woolworths store for about $250....  Then I put it off when I could have got them through the CMP for $300 or so...  and yet I still don't have one.....

Personally, I keep buying other guns first...  Hell, I still want an M1A but I don't have one of those either...  Kind of sucks to have so many guns and still find more that you just got to have....

I'm getting one of my own this fall. I love them. I love them so much, that my new gmail account venerates the Garand.

That is not a Garand.

BTW, the only Garand to have is an actual USGI Garand, not ANY of the overpriced aftermarket ones.

After i posted this I finally figured it out.....

The reason I don't have a M1 Garrand yet is because the Democrats didn't try to tell me I can't have one....

It's the Liberals Fault

Yeah, why don't you have one??  I had two... had to sell one...  My Dane/Winchester with a VAR barrel is my keeper.   (the one in the pic is not her)

Umm because I have an AR-15 (several actually) and don't want/need to take on another caliber.

If I want to shoot one I know several people with them.

Am getting a CMP 1903a3 Springfield.

The Garand just doesn't do anything for me. Would rather have a nice Mauser.

'Cause it's heavy, & loud, & kicks too hard.  And Mommy says I'll poke my eye out w/that

Is this all of the USGI manufacturers?

If not, can someone name them for me. I am considering getting one, but haven't done the required countless hours of research that my warped mind makes me do before I can make any substantial purchase
