What an overwhelming wealth of knowledge.
Hi! I am a retired USAF Combat Arms Instructor and a lifelong Garand enthusiast. I just acquired a Garand in .308. I detail stripped it , cleaned, and inspected everything. Everything was in good order. At the range I was pleasantly surprized by the mild recoil and accurate groups attainable. In other words, I LOVE IT!. I also have a Swiss K31. If a person trims down the tab on the M1 cylinder lock (to around a sixteenth of an inch), the Swiss bayonet fits perfectly. It also looks great. Glad to be a new member of this fine forum. I purchased the garand as a back-up for my M1A. I'm now having a personal debate over which one is better!
Oh, such problems to have! May it never be resolved.:clap:
Hi! I'm a new member, mainly interested in the M1 Carbine. Trying to find good information on parts & accessories.

I have gleaned some interesting info today about the Krag and the Vetterli rifle. I am grateful for this info and feel this site should be both enjoyable and again educational. MNtrekker have a good one.
New member on this forum. A friend took me to the CMP North Store in 2005, got bit by the garand bug, followed by the 03 bug, and then the carbine bug. Now it's bayonets. looking forward to getting a lot of good info from this site, Rob
