Where did you buy yours?Were they in good condition or you had to send to a gun restoration shop ?
I've heard that gun shows is a good place to get them cheap,but of course you have to send them to a shop after for a tune up.
I really don't know I just start looking about a week ago.

Look @ this site [url="http://www.dgrguns.com/firearmsforsale.html"]http://www.dgrguns.com/firearmsforsale.html[/url]

Thanks

Forget about the M1 Garand, Buy the Mauser K98 Rifle instead!!! It looks better to, and more authentic

^lol!

I dont know if i would ever get one, they arent the greatest & haveing to unload the entire round would be rather anoying. id buy Mauser K98 Rifle if i was going to get a rifle. That bolt action just floats my boat.
