How many already paid for M-14 rifles do we have gathering dust in warehouses?

I’d like one of those M-1 Garands.

None. Clinton ordered them destroyed during his term. The survivors that were used in Gulf II through today, when the need for something not in a mouse gun caliber became apparent, are either ones Marine units and a few Army units ‘lost’ or are new-build Springfield Armory (the company not the government arsenal.)

Not many, after Afghanistan. Lots of those were pulled out, restocked and reissued as the M-21 DMR.
