Garand enbloc loading...

[agit-prop]

How do you load your enblocs, and why?

When your enbloc is loaded into your Garand are the first and last rounds fired;

a.) First on the right, last on the left?
b.) First on the left, last on the right?
c.) I never pay much attention to it - one way is the same as the other.

Milsurp stuff is either way so it don't matter to me man.

 

[Garand]

Always last round on the right, in the 3 Garands that I have owned I have never deviated. The rifles have also never failed to function.

HMMMMM...tell us about your M-1 Garand...specifically the smoothbore 30-06!! Remember those were EXTRA-hot loads you needed to make it function, right after the new barrel/stock/op-rod/bolt/what else was there?
Have to agree with loading the clips though...it does work.

[Missing Something]

I have fired thousands of rounds through several Garands and never found loading them one way or the other affected functioning.

maybe I have been lucky.... just my 2 cents.

They were always loaded with the last round on the right.
This makes loading the rifle easier for a right haned shooter, but the rifle works either way.

Does it really matter? eerrrrrr......No.

It work both ways just fine, the joys of well developed battle rifle.
