Since starting to talk about my M1 Garand, CMP Collector Grade, which from all appearances appears to have come right out of the armory last week, several people have asked me if I'm going to shoot it, or treat it as a safe queen. These queries have caused me now to rethink my plan to use it as a shooter. I'll put in the video of it at the end here to remind you what I'm talking about.
Should I leave it as a safe queen and not use it?
I suppose a true collector of Garands may not ever shoot, choosing instead to leave it in this nearly mint condition.
Safe Queen or Shooter?
What are your thoughts on this? Thanks guys.Information
