There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Damn. I almost had this happen using factory ammo that was a bit more than the Garand was made for. Got a face full of powder and the receiver jumped up out of the stock which cracked.

Wow! Heartbreaking. Surplus M2 is all I run in my M1s for this exact reason.
