Hey guys,
I have been thinking about and saving up for a Ruger blackhawk for a while now. However, recently I've been reading all I can about the M1 Garands (specifically the CMP Service Grade rifles now being offered).
The M1's are kinda "speaking to me". There just seems to be something about them.
1. Are they fun to shoot? My shooting consists of punching a lot of paper at the range. I am a member of the Stillwater Rifle and Pistol club, so I do have access to ranges up to 500 yards.
2. Are they money pits? Do they require a lot of maintenance to keep them going?
3. Are there many M1 shoots/competitions held here in Oklahoma?
Thanks!
