M1 Garand Bump fire

Semi-Automatic M1 Garand shooting like a Fully-Automatic using the bump fire technique. The rifle does not have to be altered in any way and is not illegal. It should not have any negative impact on the rifle since it is not altered. The rifle is firing faster than what we could pull the trigger, but should not fire faster than what it is capable(30-ish rounds a minute).

Video is not made by me. Its from the guys at "Life, Liberty, etc." found here: http://www.lifelibertyetc.com/RangeBag.aspx

I love the Garand and wanted to share this cool video with yall.

how did you not catch the garand thumb???!!! lol

[SgtGarand]

@sawyerbobby Garand Thumb usually happens when the bolt isnt locked back fully and you stick your thumb in the empty chamber to press down on the follower(to disengage the bolt to close it). Since the bolt isn't engaged properly the bolt will slam shut as soon as the follower is pressed. That's why it's always a good idea to use the blade of your hand against the op-rod handle to prevent that. Trust me, I know because its happened to me twice(and on the same day) ...Lesson learned for life

[sawyerbobby]

@SgtGarand ha! that's funny, but hey what doesn't kill makes you stronger...is that how it goes?

[SgtGarand]

@sawyerbobby lol supposedly. I did learn that lesson pretty quick, so there's that.

@JGMRACING89 The video was uploaded on my channel back in 2006... before CoD 3 was released. The video itself was uploaded on August 9th, 2003, by the guys at Life, Liberty, Etc. The first CoD wasn't even released until October 29, 2003. So... I don't think CoD had anything to do with it ;)

@7x57mmMauser Wasn't me in the video, but maybe I should put that in the description. Oh wait, I already did...

*pew* *pew* *pew* *pew* *pew* *pew* *pew* *pew* *bling* :D Thats a nice video, gonna get the rifle in a near future too, wish me a luck. *awsome gun* krauts and tojos had a nightmares over those haha :D Too many ppl talk about COD and i dont understand why, COD is just pointless video game, they should talk about real rifles or STFU! Does it hurt the finger to bump fire like that? The way i see is you stick a thumb between the trigger and that safte button thing...
