This is the range where the M1 Garand blew up.

They couldn’t find a first aid kit.

Sad.

Is the incident described in the article the M1 incident - or is this a second incident at the same range?

Why did the Garand blow up?

Was the shooter using modern commerical ammo instead of military ball ammo?
