That’s how I got my Garand, which was sadly lost in a boating accident. The CMP is secret only to those who are ignorant of it.

That’s what happened to my CMP M1 Garand (International Harvester), M1-D and 1903 Springfield made in 1918 with an original barrel! <:-(

All I have left is a wiffle bat! If the weather cools down some I will light up the forge with some of my high sulfur coal and pound out a spear point on the anvil.

And just why was it, pray tell, that you had a gun out in a boat? Most people have fishing tackle in such a situation.

Hackneyed phrases, hackneyed phrases.
