Again as I have shown back when it was made and into the war it was called a Garand or in this case a Garands Semi-automatic rifle. Just because we colect 70 year later and think we know, the documents I have been showing say it was called a Garand way back. All of the pictures I have shown in another thread show this also as does more I have here. And yes it was called the M1also so either name could be correct.. Rick B
