I came across four M1 Garands at a local, well known gun shop yesterday. Each of them had a CAI receiver retrofitted into them. I've read about the CAI receivers here and in the magazines a few times and the reviews of the CAI receivers were always poor. The shop owner said that if I wanted a shooter, the CAI was just fine. The price seemed reasonable: under $500. New barrels, too. The question is who is correct? Are the CAI receivers any good or should I hold out for an M1 with another receiver? I don't absolutely have to have an M1 today, but I'd hate to pass up an opportunity, especially with the scarcity and the prices most M1s are demanding today. I do want a shooter and not a collector gun. Any info or honest opinions will be appreciated.
