Well i think it's time for me to get into the garand market so my question to all of you is, out of all the ones Jean has left at P&S, which one would you get if you had to get one and if there is any special reason for your choice i'd like to know. Just looking for some help here guy's/gals that's all, not looking for the " save your money and get a nice one " responses. And yes i will be asking Jean aswell.
 
Looks like they're all in about the same condition, if you buy from P&S I'd trust Jeans opinion and just ask him to pick out what he considers the best of the bunch. I did this with a Mosin purchase from him and was pleased with the result.
 
I was happy with my M1 Garand from Jean at P&S. He describes the condition very well. What he says is exactly what you will get. No surprises here. I knew very well that I would be replacing the stock, but that is because I like nice fondling new walnut when I'm watching "Shaving Ryan's Privates" or my Tin Boxed Set "Band of Brothers".

Personally you must identify what serial number range or generation of M1 Garand you prefer and then go for it. I'm a Post war kinda guy (5 million era serial numbers), since I like working and building with the latest drawing revision numbers when it comes to screwing on a National Match barrel.

Enjoy the addiction.

If you don't care to have a WW2 dated one, I'd get a tractor Garand - matching parts as much as possible (International Harvester). They are some of the best and fewest made Garands out there. Second best would be an H&R

I agree the International Harvester I have is beautiful.
