No... it didn't blow up! I mean more like POW!
I'M IN LOVE!! My wife says if I bring that ugly thing to bed, she is sleeping on the couch! ( I hope the M-1 dosen't hog the blankets!)
For some reason I can't get that beach assault from Saving Private Ryan out of my head. This rifle is a real relic, I LOVE IT!
I put 80 rds. thru her today... got it zeroed, and it shoots! My AR-15 is jealous!
QUESTION FOR YOU GARAND EXPERTS....
How do I know what I got?
here is what I found...
Springfield Armory- M-1 .30 cal on the reciever along with the serial#
* on the stock below the reciever, on the top of the grip... a small bomb.
* on the bottom of the stock, the number 9 and the Springfield crossed barrels.
ANYONE KNOW WHAT I SHOULD BE LOOKING FOR as far as worth...or when it was made...or if it was rebuilt 100 times????? IT WAS $200! But I would still like to know what I got. Thanks for any info!
