I find myself wanting a nice semi-automatic .30/06 for hunting and general purpose use, but can't decide between these 2 rifles.
I know the Garand is heavier, but I shot one not long ago, and, well I'm in love! Oh the history of it, the inexpensive stripper clips ...
My problem is that because of poor vision, I require scopes on all of my rifles. I know the BAR is more easily scoped, but it can't be as sturdy and the freakin' magazines are like 35 bucks a piece ...
So is it possible to scope a Garand? If not, looks like I'm stuck with the BAR ...
