Very cool HH. General Patton called the M1, "The greatest battle implement ever devised." A fitting tool for our greatest generation to conquer the forces of darkness during WWII, and Communism during the Cold War. Whenever I touch a Garand, I think, "If only this rifle could talk and tell me the stories of the brave soldiers and marines who carried her."
The reason I got into M1s was their history. Once you shoot one, you never forget it.
