M!-Garand/ New Barrel & Can't Hit Anything!

[jmoore]

As a bit of trivia that many here already know, the wide base gas cylinder was adopted to allow more M1s to pass post test fire/zero inspection. It gave the assemblers a bit more leeway and saved a great deal of time.

BTW Charlie59, just hit the thanks button at the bottom right of a post- It also saves time!
