I'm getting to the point where my eyes are deteriorating to the point I seldom shoot any more. I used to shoot combat Pistol at 100 yards. I'm down to 100 feet. I loved the Garand. The ammunition was bulky, but at 300 yards it was a gem. The Carbine was a good jungle rifle, maybe the best that ever existed, but few people were trained on it. I would prefer it's stock be an inch or so longer. Hit someone in the gut with it and it will blow their spine out.

. I used to shoot combat Pistol at 100 yards.

Just curious, but why? 100 yd is certainly beyond effective pistol range for 99.9% of shooters. Why not transition to rifle?
