I saw the same thing once, years ago, with a guy shooting a round of skeet using a brand new over/under shotgun. It wouldn't always set the trigger for the double stations. We watched him closely,...

Thanks,

Does the M10 work, though?

I only had a case problem once. The entire head came off, like someone used a tube cutter on it. I used a .45 caliber brush on a short rod, pushed it in the case, pulled it out easily. I would think...

I don't shoot competition, and unhook any sling when shooting from a bench. Web is far easier and quicker. Where a sling is necessary for me now, is walking a rifle around a gun show like I did...

Do any of you remember George B, who used to work at CMPs' North Store? He was in the Army, and said the leather slings were a PITA, and had to be marked with a pen for different adjustments. He...

I shoot lefthanded, and use the ping as a signal to catch the clip as it exits the chamber, with my right hand.

Nice rifle! It has post war rear sights, and the stock looks like a HRA. Are there any cartouches on it, or a letter "P" stamped under the pistol grip? Barrel date? Thanks or showing us,
Charlie

Thanks, Bill!

Here's the other side.

Here's a pic of a kit from a tube, dated 1960. Also, a pic of a one piece unmarked case, from a pack of 10, dated 4-53. Also, a fake, numbered case next to good one(I hope). You can see the...

Have you checked the muzzle for excessive wear, and the gas piston?

While you're at it, make sure the gas screw is tight, it only takes a few seconds.

I read on another forum they were $2000. Anyone know how many they have?

I didn't say they weren't capable of pinpoint accuracy. All I'm saying is that they were engineered for function, durability and military (combat) accuracy---something like 4" at 100yd. or...

As far as I'm concerned, there are two kinds of accuracy. The first is "bench rest" accuracy, where you can shoot 5 round groups, and cover all 5 holes with a quarter. The next type is what I call...

CMP has lots of service grade slings. Most seem to be USGI, some Danish, some WW2, some unmarked--$5.95 per. Limit-100 slings. Web Slings on estore - CMP Forums

The way I wrote it, doesn't make sense to me, either! I'll correct it in a minute, but what I meant is that some of the wood I've seen lately, on Collector Grade rifles isn't any different than wood...

I've noticed something lately about CMP Collector Grade rifles. What separates them from, say Correct Grades, is the wood. For that matter, SG Specials prices are because of the wood, too. That said,...

I agree, nice rifle.

I think the sheet had HRA 4-55 as the barrel info. The higher the price, the more one should check the rifle out in person, or have some who knows Garands well to do it. You should, IMO, check out...

Check here: Civilian Marksmanship Program They sell "correct grades" for $1100. Not quite as nice as the one you showed, but close. Then there's the "service grade special", they have collector...

I believe long guns were added several years ago to the list

I always thought "frosted," is still pitted, but it does sound better. Are all the small, internal parts correct, Winchester parts? Is the barrel Winchester? Are you saying the seller is going to put...

I don't fool around with any kind of stain. I use linseed oil exclusively, and let time take care of the coloration.
