I think a few of those need to come home with me to keep their cousin company. Thanks for sharing. Great stuff right there.
I think that picture 18 would rank right up there in the top 3. That is a whooole lotta history just sitting in a box.
Thanks for the pics.
Thanks for the pics.
OMG! That a slew of rifles
I've shot several, and considered getting one, but have procrastinated. I guess since a 7.7Jap sits in my safe, I should get one of ours. Of course it would have to go into the other safe.

i'm going to bump this to the top. When i got the winter 09 GCA magazine this article was in there, 19,000 garands returned from greece and they said they are some of if not the last of the greek returns.
links to pics are in post #10 of this thread i couldnt get mine to work. Apparently GCA members spent $750,000 on rifles that day

That's a bit late
From what I've read on the CMP forum, they've since sold a fair number of the M1D's, are out of WRA SG M1's and a lot of the Bavarian Carbines, etc.But yep, walking into the warehouse with crates and crates of Garands, just waiting to be opened, would be sensory overload. I'd have a bad case of the vapors
I've been avoiding buying a garand, telling myself that 30-06 is just too expensive these days, but I think I have just been convinced to find an american classic to keep my Mosin Nagant company...I will of course be letting my wife know exactly who turned me on to this whole shebang...
