Re: M1 Garands for sale
I try not to show my ignorance on here to much, but I thought the M1 Garand was offered in .308 along with .30 carbine and 30.06

CMP redid a few in 308 but never any made for use by the factory that I know of. The 276 Pedersen was made for a very short run.

You can thank Bugout Doug for the switch from 276 to 30-06Toddstang wrote:CMP redid a few in 308 but never any made for use by the factory that I know of. The 276 Pedersen was made for a very short run.
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.

So, I need to join a group, then with all paperwork take a trip up to Ohio. Sounds like a road trip. Honestly, I don't care which manufacturer, I would just be happy to own a piece of history.

Re: M1 Garands for sale
Some are confused by the fact they were both designated M1skokopelli wrote:.30 carbine was in the .30 carbine...smaller, different weapon meant for other than front line infantry
M1 Carbine - Carbine in .30 Carbine
M1 Garand - "Battle" Rifle in .276 then in 30-06. Some later in 7.62x51 aka 308
But also in WW-II you also had other M1s
M1 bayonet, for the M1 Garand
M1 chemical mine
M1 Combat Car
M1 Armored car
M1 Helmet
M1 mortar
M1 rocket launcher, a bazooka variant
M1 Thompson submachine gun in .45 ACP
M1 90mm Gun
M1 flamethrower

If anyone decides to go to either CMP store and wants to split gas, send me a PM.

Re: M1 Garands for sale
I sense RENTAL VAN
only issue is that these are military facilities right? What do you do with your CCDW while entering? (never mind, only north one is on Camp Perry)
