Garand aquisitions and projects.

After selling my restored 6mil m1 garands to a member here a few months ago, was debating to which direction wanted to go.

Well as luck would have it, got hands on another 6mil that requires no work on my end which is a change lol




What can I say, got a soft spot for these rifles

To be honest was accidental. Took family up to our place in Lincoln NH for weekend. In way home stopped at the Tipton diner. Saw a Ad on placemat for a place that buys and sells military weapons and other things. So of course looked it up and checked through offerings. Noticed 2 nice M1s all correct. One was a 5.8mil SA, other was this baby. So emailed them asking if wanted to trade for it and offered up trade bait. Worked out an agreeable deal and now back up to nearly full set of M1s.
