  • one person is not american

  • I would also like to say to any Appleseed folks out there. Dont listen to this deal about buying a rack or field grade M1 Garand from CMP. That is the lowest quality M1 Garand CMP sells. You want one of at least "service grade" quality. Service grade is what the U.S. military considered to be acceptable condition to issue to a GI or Marine during WW2 or Korea. The military did not issue rack or field grades to troops, rack and field grades are junk rifles. Service grade plus good ammo.

  • @kalsinakov4774 Rack or Field grade are both shootable rifles they just are not super accurate but still worth buying for plinking and for the wall. If you want to shoot it in competition then I would say no lower then a Service grade unless you buy a Field grade like I am doing and then later on put a new barrel in her for about $180 and dont have the money now for a Service grade. Hope that helps. Check out the CMP Forums too. Super great people there with M1 knowledge.

  • You poked a pen thru those targets, I know your game ; ) n0000b!

  • @phrankus2009 The ping alerting enemies is just a myth.

  • @kalsinakov4774 Field grade is certainly shootable. Rack grades will be more questionable, but I've never heard of anybody I know getting one that hasn't been worth it.

  • @CoolestDude38NC Concerning your statement about CMP rack or field grade M1 Garands my son wants to buy one, now are they so bad you cant shoot or so bad you cant get a 4'' group at 100yds?

  • @phrankus2009 The 'ping' noise does say that the Garand is out, but you try listening for that in the heat of a battle. The mag ejection trick would probably only work in small group engagements. It's a feasible story, but not for large-scale fighting.

  • Do you think it would be a wise project to sporterize an M1 Garand?
