Garand 7th round jams

[thebaron]

Hey guys,

When I shoot my Garand, the 7th round always jams. I have changed En-blocs, changed ammo, it never fails, every single time. Any ideas?

When I pull the bolt back and manually feed the 7th round in and fire, it ejects properly and the 8th round chambers fine.

Edit: Damnit, I posted in the wrong forum.

Whats the serial range of your Garand?. Early Garands had a machining issue with the receiver. This was repaired by adding material to part of the receiver. There are very few that escaped this repair. Check if the Oprod spring is good by loading a loaded enbloc and see if the bolt closes without help. Also see if the rifle is properly lubricated.
