A high school buddy of mine's dad had one back in the day. He showed me how "not" to load it. Damn near ripped his thumb off. I never cared to own one after seeing that. Besides, the are basically a telephone pole with a barrel. Heavy sombeech!
After several years I finally got another M1 garand. This is the third H&R I have owned. It's a 5.5 mil and in pretty good shape. I didn't get it from the CMP but it probably originally came from there. I can't wait to shoot it.
