  1. What's the best thing you've found at a Pawn Shop?

    A S&W model 36 snubbie for $150 with original grips and blueing. Maybe 4 years ago

  2. CMP 1911 lottery

    They supposedly started with more than 50,000.

  3. Thoughts on M1 stocks

    I will definitely check this. Just checked a GI stock in this area, and the firing pin has been hitting it. The receiver is even relieved in this area. Never had a problem here, but it doesn't hurt to relieve the area.

  4. Thoughts on M1 stocks

    If the handguard area wasn't butched, I find no problems with the "Korean" type stock. Lots of time with a sander and it is GTG. I do not like you can tell them at a glance by the grip.

  5. Thoughts on M1 stocks

    ALso, I am taking my own advice and going to use a modern stock on my 80 year old Garand for shooting. Not going to endanger an original stock. Am using pure tung oil, as I always have, so no buildup problems are causing any fitting problems.

  6. Thoughts on M1 stocks

    I am in the process of fitting a Dupage stock to an M1. I am not new to this and have done 4 Boyd stocks, though that was 15 or more years ago. The Dupage stocks are also made by Boyd, though they are somewhat more true to the early M1 stocks. The original Boyd stocks, (and maybe today's...

    Classic Firearms For Sale in Suwanee (1911, K98, Luger, Model 70, etc)

    How about post prices. This isn't ebay

    Garand FTF Part II - Help!

    Springfield Armory spent a lot of resources fixing the 7th round failure. It is not the same as the problem you are having, but it is in that area. Your rib is damaged and needs to be built back up, not polished down. Removing metal will make it worse. Research "7th round failure in Garand"

  9. M1 Garand Muzzle & throat erosion numbers

    If you get to Locust Grove, I have a CMP set and would be happy to gage them for you.

    Interesting Milsurp ammo

    The prototype Garands held 10 of those instead of the 8 M2 Ball, IIRC.

  11. Company Imports Trove of M1 Carbines from Ethiopia to Sell in US

    They have been available for a while. The good stuff is a bit picked over.

  12. Should I One Day, Donate Collection to the CMP

    What do you care, you are dead.

  13. Should I One Day, Donate Collection to the CMP

    I would expect them to sell whatever I gave

  14. Should I One Day, Donate Collection to the CMP

    Where? Axing for a friend

  15. Should I One Day, Donate Collection to the CMP

    I am in the same boat. I have thought long and hard about a donation to CMP. I have several non military arms and wonder if they would take them and find new owners for them, the proceeds going back to them, of course

  16. Garand FTF - Help!

    The Greeks liked to adjust timing by bending the follower rod. Check that yours is straight.

  17. Garand stock question

    I tried that. It helped, but was nowhere near new stock fit. As I was looking it over, I noticed it had a dipped heel. Wish I didn't notice that, could cost me.

  18. Garand stock question

    Stock by itself is expensive.

  19. Garand stock question

    But, I like to shoot them.

  20. Garand stock question

    Ran across a late 42 M1 that is all matching except the bolt. it has an SA/EMcF stock (correct for production date) on it, but it is not as tight as I like to see for shooting. The seller has a GAW stock he will swap out if desired. The GAW fits great and finish matches as well as the EMcF...
