Up for grabs I have one copy of Scott Duff's M1 Garand Owners Guide and two copies of The M1 Does My Talking by Robert Bruce. A few ground rules: Live in the USA. One to a customer. Don't already have a copy. Ideally I'd like these to go to someone that just got their first M1, but I won't hold firm on that one. The Karmanator will draw winners in a week or so.This message has been edited. Last edited by: M1Garandy, | ||

I have 2 that my 2 boys will inherit. I'd love a chance at either as I have no books. Thx! __________________________ | |||

I got my first Garand in 2017. There will be more. Thanks for the chance to learn more about them. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

An M1 Garand is on my short list. I did just get my M1 Carbine. I'd love a shot at this. Thanks, Rolan Kraps SASS Regulator Gainesville, Georgia. NRA Range Safety Officer NRA Certified Instructor - Pistol / Personal Protection Inside the Home | |||

Please enter me for a copy of The M1 Does My Talking.I have a six digit Springfield from the CMP. Also have a Garand bayonet that was given to me by a friend. He told me that he carried it in Vietnam while there. -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A.

Interesting... Could you share some more about this? US forces didn't use the Garand in Vietnam in any real numbers, other than a very small number of Navy shore party members (Seabees, Beachmasters, etc.) during the 1965 Marine amphibious landing at Da Nang, and infrequent use of the M1D sniper Garand due to a shortfall of more modern sniper rifles. But the South Vietnamese fielded large numbers of Garands, received as military aid from the US. Was he a South Vietnamese soldier? Or a US Special Forces adviser to a Vietnamese unit, who may have elected to carry what his guys were using? | |||

Awesome Karma! Please count me in. I just got my first Garand from the CMP in November, and have since talked both of my younger brothers into getting one as well. I've been enjoying learning about it and developing loads for it. We'd get good use out of either of those books! | |||

Ooh, put me down for a chance at the Owners Guide. My .308 Garand leans in the corner at this moment. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. JALLEN 10/18/18 https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...610094844#7610094844 | |||

I sadly do not own copies of any of those. I am in the US. I own two and work on some for my agency. Oh and win or lose, thank you for your generosity. | |||

He didn't have the rifle to my knowledge, just the bayonet. And he was Special Forces. From what he said he carried the bayonet as a tool but I will have to ask him for more information. -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A.

Nice karma, count me in! I have an immaculate Garand at my Dad's place that I bought sometime in the 90s. I really don't know enough about them at a user level to trust myself to operate and especially maintain it properly.

Add me more the Owner’s Guide please. I have one Garand given to me by my Grandfather a couple years back. I have yet to shoot it. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have. I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand. You should know I'll be there for you! | |||
