why would someone do this to a perfectly good 1917??

agreed, id bet that they all get captain crunched for sure... the only weapons that might,,,and thats a big might be available will be the Remington bolt actions, and the Beretta pistols.
anything else will likely be cut up and scrapped...
i think that all surplus should be sold off to the highest bidder, and the money put towards our national dept... wait.,.that would make since...never mind.

deap in the bottom of the ocean,, or a couple of the Great lakes.... my grandfather worked on a Bardge that would travel out to the middle of one of the great lakes...full of weapons..then dump em in...jump on in lets go for a swim.. rusty globs of junk by now.
you would have better luck travling to SE Aisia, iv seen pictures of metal scrap yards with piles of rifles, from M16,s to BAR,s Garands, , they had 17,s stacked like cord wood like a fence line..
just doing some research and found that Italy destroyed over 10,000 M1 Garands to make the United Nations Happy...make you wanna join the UN dont it.
