[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3079373, member: 13624"] I got mine not with my thumb, but my trigger finger. That particular rifle had been sticking, requiring a tap on the back of the charging handle every time I reloaded. No worries. I noticed some grass down in the magazine and stuck my finger in to remove it. As soon as my finger touched (and I mean barely [I]grazed[/I]) the follower, [I]wham[/I]! @@#$%%@%*#$! Spent the rest of the day shooting with my [I]middle[/I] finger, and never forgot the lesson. And I still love Garands. [/QUOTE]
