Just for fun....

Note that the strap on the AR-15 is not correctly installed. The center gun is my new SOCOM 16, an M-14 (or M1A) derivative with a 16.25 inch barrel. I bought the wood stock for it about a week after I got the gun. It looks very nice in wood.

The Garand on the right was used in Korea. My friends and I all bought one when they were incredibly cheap (like under $300 if I recall correctly, long time ago). Mine's been re-barreled, glass-bedded, I finished a new stock, it has match sights and a match trigger. It's very accurate.

The AR on the left is a Clinton-era Bushmaster AR with match trigger and the chrome-lined bull barrel. It's very accurate, especially if the sling is installed properly and used! :-)

very nice. I wanted an M1A BUT I opted for the Armalite AR10T instead. I just took it out this week and put about 100 rounds through it. Even with mediocre ammo, I was around 1 moa. I’m looking forward to improving the reloads. I’m sure I’ll have it down to .5 moa once it’s tuned in.

I think the Garand is a physicically beautiful weapon. The stock is beautiful.

A walnut stock is just gorgeous.
