Has anyone read the book "The M1 Garand by Tom Laemlein"?
There really isn't much to read, and it isn't new (it came out in 2006). It is a picture book with very nice full-page period photos. I have both the M1 Garand and the Carbine volumes.
Sample of the photos in the M1 Garand volume:

I have this book. I bought when it first came out. It is a fantastic one with photos I have never seen before. If you like well photographed books on the Garand this is one to get!
looks like I will have to by it:beerchug:
Well worth every cent for both the Carbine and Garand books
If you like WW2 the whole series would be worth it
There`s a couple more ruined Garand barrels ;-)
I have the Garand and carbine books, its just surprising he doesnt point out the pics of early gas traps, when theyre shown in use, or type 1 carbine stocks.

No, but I did read "The Last Stand of Fox Company," a new one on the Marine Chosin Reservoir battle. It will be reviewed in the next GCA Journal. Fantastic.
where can you purchase these books?

The very first M1 I bought is the same one shown above (pic#87). At 50 yds, it shot 18 inches to the right. I wonder why? B
I read a bit of this book at "Books-A-Million. It's a must read, I will be going back tomorrow to buy it. Hector A. Cafferata of F-2-7 was awarded the Medal of Honor at "Fox Hill" -. His story is in this book. Marine Cafferata is doing well and living in S.W. Florida. Semper Fi, JoeQuote:
