1. I'm immediately skeptical when anyone says "all original" about a Garand, especially one that is "available." I find the definitions vary when pressed for details.

2. "Correct grade" is just a...

I don't know which loads are different because as soon as they released the 11th edition, they cut off all access to the electronic 10th edition that I paid for with their app, with no warning. I...

Good for him. If he gets away with eBay's ignorance, more power to him. He may very well know what his odds are of getting it through.

My buddy bought an Enfield "barrel" on eBay. It was...

"Honey, look, there's a tank out there! You'd better go hide in the basement all day while I sort this out."

I've never seen hang-fires with it, but I've seen maybe 0.5% misfires (1/200). It's just not worth addressing it. All the matches I shoot with it have plenty of time to make up the shot. The ammo...

A lot of us use Turkish 8mm ammo here in Las Vegas at our thrice monthly shoots. I run it as-is in my Persian often. A few of the guys break it down, reduce the powder charge by about 10%, and...

You want the recoil lug in the inletting to do all the work. A gap is GOOD behind the action, preventing cracks/chips in that location. Too much gap is better than contact.

A buddy of mine found a G43 locally several years ago. It had 4 extra magazines, in pouches, with it. By the time I bought the rifle from him a few years later, he'd already lost the extra...

Berdan primed, but non-corrosive.

I'd shoot it! I'd probably make a few special rounds for it that wouldn't be nearly as effective as what I'd normally shoot out of the Enfields, but it would be a hoot.

My dad taught us to make those when we were kids. Still the best way to cook a hot dog I've ever used.

Lots of US Navy ships' logs are now public records. I wonder if that appears!

It is very likely it was never intended to be finished with that grip. A prototype is often built to take whatever grip is already easily available. It's just to test the action.

Wheeler has a "Basic" with three pins, and a "Professional" with pins around the full half-circumference. Which was it? I use a 2-pin wrench for faster spinning the part on or off, but I use a full...

Pretty sad if your teachers aren't allowed to be armed while being in charge of your kids.

I think he has this one, which appears to be pretty darn heavy duty for constant usage:

M1 Enbloc Clip Loader - YouTube

I've got a buddy in a neighboring state with a Garand in 6.5 Swede (I'm still waiting for a barrel to build one.) Apparently, the en blocs are a lot harder to load for that one. He has a...

Trophy of the Spanish-American war? Would have been used in their M1893 Mauser rifles.

I have an ARMS #18 on an M1A Scout and there is nothing lower. It's a great mount. I have a small Leupold Mk 4 tactical on it, and just use a small cheekpad.

I have a Sadlak that I use with my...

They are, essentially, calling your bluff. They are pretty damn sure you aren't going to shoot them. But if you have a bayonet attached, they know it's on themselves not to get cut. It's a very...

I do my best to keep mine accurate and up to date, but I also purposely let my license lapse. As soon as it does, I can destroy those records. I then apply for my license again. It doesn't cost...

Make sure you get that red pack of Marlboros in there!

Please keep us updated on the load development. I got one of these last year, but am still too busy shooting the others to really have a chance to play with this one yet. But I know I will want to!

S&B has it in some of their modern ammo as it has the same effect in things other than balloons, too. This stuff here is very accurate in my Venezuelan FN-49.
