M1 Garand with scope over bore CASM mount

[fmsniper]

so I always wanted a M1 Garand with scope over bore.
Finally CASM mount and M1 Garand Thumb Saver stops the clip from coming out, just reload from the top the 8 rounds.

all non permanent mods

Rifle is a HR, VAR barrel Danish return from CMP

SS 3x9 Mil scope

When I had this rifle as a scout rifle it shot 1 MOA, interested to see what it does now

You know, it might just shoot like a b@stard...? Those laminate stocks don't let much moisture in and stay pretty rigid.

[fmsniper]

Yes agreed, I also put in a schuster gas plug so I can use commercial ammo without over pressure

[Bill Hollinger]

I'd like to see it fed an eight round enbloc.

[browningautorifle]

Apparently you insert one and it stays. Then you reload singles through the top. Loose...

[jimmieZ]

If you use a Garand "thumb saver" (sold elsewhere) you insert an empty en-bloc clip and can single load and shoot all rounds - clip doesn't eject. Kind of makes it like a Johnson in some respects.

[browningautorifle]

But you want the repetition. The idea is 8 rounds. You just have to load singles. I'm not afraid to do it. I'm friends with my M1s. They don't bite me.

My wife accuses me of "fondling" mine

[browningautorifle]

Yup...
