How well does the Garand like the ingress of foreign matter as with the en bloc's slung like that and the G I takes a dive into the mud evading fire how well will the rifle cycle reloading with crud all through the clip and rounds. Were not allowed that type here so know next to nothing about this great piece of WWII kit.
Looking at Bill Mauldin cartoons?
The same as any other rifle. It will only work until it won't work and then you have to sort it out.Quote:
