Not a snowball's chance in hell that .308s are more common that 30-06s. And the only 30-06 worth $5000 is the one owned by Audie Murphy (maybe).

Well ####. I paid too much for my M1D then. I hope Murphy owned that one too.

I like the way you think.
Pulled the trigger yesterday. Pun intended.
I'm not getting any younger and this is the gun that I've always wanted.

I stand corrected. I am sorry for the confusion. Apparently I leaped before looking. Lesson leared

You do know that the garand is on the ban list, can't be bought or sold legally at the moment!

You don't know you are wrong.

The .30M1 Carbine is banned, not the M1 Garand

I could have bought and held lots of gold at well under $300/oz. The current price of Garands has me feeling double deja vu LOL!

Just think - when Canada went off the gold standard (some time in the 1960s, I think) it was $35/ounce.

You wont regret it. I bought my fiance one so she could learn firearms and she thoroughly enjoys it.

Very excited to use it. I'm rounding out my selection of calibres as well, which is cool.
At 10 cents a round, I won't deny that we'll do most of our shooting with our 10/22 LR.
But we will always take the .308 for a box of rounds . Or two...

If your still looking I see them being posted every so often on the exchange page here, you could probably find one for a fair price if your not looking for a ww2 specific one, but more of a post war/re-built one.

You just reminded me of a Simpsons episode when Homer bought Marge a bowling ball as a present….and it said HOMER on the ball.

Way back when I wasn't quite a teenager - gold was $US35. an ounce.
