    Bought an M1A, Now What?

    The garand is by far less ammo sensitive than an M14.

    Throwback Thursday: Shooting Steel-Cased Ammo In Your AR-15

    You should try it to see if your rifle likes it first. I've never had any issues at all with mine.

    Throwback Thursday: Shooting Steel-Cased Ammo In Your AR-15

    Haven't had any issues with steel cases and will shoot up what I have left. Even reloaded some just for hunting use...no problems there either.

    I thought I was in the Healthy discussions / disagreements are ok area with zero aggression noted anywhere?

    My first Garand - A snipah

    Sorry..just pointing out a 1947 barrel isn't a D barrel. *Shrugs*

    Talking about m1Ds here. Argumentative and posting information supporting your facts is two different things especially if someone else posts something that is lacking info or just plain wrong. That's called a discussion. No names are being called or attacking anyone. Just simply posting...

    M1A Hunting ammo

    Right. .. which is exactly what CMP said... CMP just all said SAAMI spec is fine. Same thing I said.

    M1A Hunting ammo

    Please explain how different commercial ammo is compared to milsurp ammo. Specifically how different are they?

    M1A Hunting ammo

    You need to stop editing your posts after they have been replied to... Your pdf file doesn't contradict the CMP "warning". Unless you have a specific sentence that does....I haven't seen it.

    M1A Hunting ammo

    The safest thing to do with new garand owner's is to TEACH them the facts .. especially about proper maintenance and lubrication. The oprod is damaged due to lack of lubrication not the commercial/milsurp ammo you shoot. End of story.

    Chill? I'm extremely chill... Only one manufacturer was making barrels into the late 40s. Springfield armory.

    M1A Hunting ammo

    Welcome to the club! I've also been a long time competitor and collector and builder of garands. I dismissed your [cough] "factual" information because it was wrong. That why I said posting that article and claiming it's factual is misinformation. The authors should be ashamed for their lack...

    M1A Hunting ammo

    So by your own admission you didn't watch the vids that showed the facts and they came to be presented as such...... that means you will remain ignorant on this topic and I suppose you will keep your head in the sand every time you are shown something that goes against what you "know"....

    My first Garand - A snipah

    The date is for when the BARREL was made...not installed. There are no 1947 "D" barrels. It's a fake barrel.

    My first Garand - A snipah

    Sorry to tell you it's not a real M1D. Someone took a regular barrel and made it into a "D" barrel. It's likely the barrel scope mount block is a repo and the flash hider is as well. Probably the cheek pad also. At this point all the "D" related items are suspect. However the rifle itself...
