I've heard of Garands MODIFIED for a lot of cartridges, including .22LR
and .458 Winchester. And much in between.
But deliberate production as another cartridge....guess this is it.
Maybe.

Also of interest was the Korean manufacture of Garands.
OK, US, Italia, Korea, Argentina......Who else?

The short story on the "M1 Thumb" is must reading. Funny and true.

Also great article by Bill Ricca on the M10 cleaning rod. The history of tools issued to maintain weapons is one that's been greatly overlooked.
