2015 Shot Show: Kingston Armory M1 Garand and M1A .22LR

kombayotch · Jan 24, 2015

I came across these in the basement. It is clearly based on a 10/22, but the manufacturer told me that they make everything themselves, including the 10/22 mags. Everything looked good on them except for the fill in the M1A mag looking a bit home workshop.

Those look very nice!

And being from Kingston, I like the company name. LOL

looks like a tarted up 10-22

Probably going after the Appleseed market.

So the mags are all one piece?

Antoine22 · Jan 24, 2015

Loled at the 2 mags tapped together.

The garand looks pretty sweet. As long as it was in the 400 ish dollar range I would probably buy one.

Baal · Jan 24, 2015

I'll buy a garand version if a dealer is bringing them in.

TangoKilo · Jan 24, 2015

I spoke with Kingston.... I believe MSRP on the Garand will be around $650.

Umpire · Jan 24, 2015

Too much for a .22Lr... Next!

It is a Ruger 10/22 receiver so that really shouldn't be a surprise.

Mr. Friendly · Jan 24, 2015

That's over $800 Canadian !
Not including the usual Canadian dealer price adjustment. lol
So who would pay $1000 tax's in to your door?

freezer filler · Jan 24, 2015

I wonder if it will fit in a sage?

dnewma02 · Jan 24, 2015

I I would love to substitute a 22lr garland for the real one I'll never get. But I think the price is to high for a decked out 10/22. Especially considering the action is so different either the m1 or m14 actions

crasheralex · Jan 24, 2015

Way too high of a price. Might as well buy a real garand

infidel29 · Jan 24, 2015

That's pretty cool! Not sure if I like the ruger action though.

Rylan · Jan 24, 2015

They did a good job making a 10/22 look like an M1 Garand... but why bother? Seems silly to me, I'd be bit embarrassed to bring one to a gun range.

Eh, I could shoot it in my backyard but the crows may disrespect it.
