Fort McMurray members: Who wants to shoot a new Garand today

New? No M1 Rifles have been made since the mid 50's, except SA Inc.'s copies. And even those are no longer being made.
 
For the benefit of the smelly schmoes who change their underwear only once a month and who then call it good:

My Garand rifle are made to the very highest standards imaginable. In all modesty, these are among the finest examples of the Garand M1 ever made.

I use the finest parts possible and money is no object. I don't care what it costs because I don't screw around. I ask myself if this part is the best I can find. If it is not the best, I won't bother.

My last three rifles were built with Krieger barrels. I used Krieger barrels because they are the finest gun barrel made in the world today.

A Krieger Garand barrel is also the finest barrel that has ever graced a Garand. I used Krieger barrels. because I don't screw around.

Before installing a barrel, there 17 separate inspection and gauging operations before a receiver is deemed acceptable. I take a lot of trouble, because I don't screw around.

Each bolt is very carefully inspected under high magnification and each bolt is carefully lapped and fitted to each receiver. Very little actually lapping is done because Italian bolts and receivers were made to very high standards. It usually requires only a very light burnishing to fit an Italian bolt and receiver. And some receivers and bolts are perfect to begin with.

And after the bolt is fitted, brand new bolt parts are installed. I don't use old extractors, etc. because I don't screw around

Each gas cylinder bore is measured by local machine shop. Those gas cylinders that are not within specifications are ruthlessly culled.

And after the gas cylinder passes muster, I have it Nitron coated by Arma Coat. I don't simply paint the gas cylinder because good enough is not good enough. Good enough is not good enough because I don't screw around.

Each operating rod is carefully inspected. The tabs must not be worn and any damage or peening to the cam slot will disqualify an operating rod.

I could go on and on, but I won't. All I can say is that each of my rifles is perfect in every possible way. People who know me think I am insane. I might be. But I don't screw around.

Comparing an ordinary Garand to one of my rifles is like comparing Mary-Jane Rottencrotch to a twenty year old Gina Lollabrigida

Damn just seen this now, I would have loved to go the range today! Spent all day fixing my buddies 10/22 we busted the trigger lock off and messed up the trigger n sear pretty good. Maybe next time he'll remember his keys when we are 3hrs south of town haha. Squinty do you target shoot much? Most of my friends are the once a summer type of target shooters, I shoot steel minimum once a week at Stoney Mountian.

Do you sell these or just build them for your (greedy :D) self??
 
So, just to clarify...
Do you or don't you screw around?

I would never sell any of my rifles. I love them; they are my children

I want to build my own Garand arsenal. I want to be able to stack arms 14 times. That will be my life's work. I might be insane but I don't screw around
 
I will be at the range next Saturday at noon. I will supply the Garands. But please bring some ammo if you want to do some extended shooting.

Please bring some American Eagle 150 grain .30-06 ammo.
 
I have had that number in mind and it just now has hit me! In Douglas Adams novel 'Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy', the number 42 is the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything !

Your not crazy at all, you have the found the same answer!
