Well, you won’t be alone, there is a Collector’s Club that focuses on the M-1 Garand Rifle. There is usually a display of M-1s at the MVACA July Gun Show. IIRC, the group is based in N. KC Mo area. Quite a dedicated group. You can find the display pretty easily, they have one of those cutaway wood M-1s that’s about 8 feet long. I recall one hanging in the front of the ROTC classroom. There was the M-14 one in the other classroom.
Is this a beautiful day or what? We did some caulking and general yard puttering, plan more puttering after lunch.
