One other thing; the human thumb is not designed to be shaped like a .30-06 cartridge. The M-1 is capable of doing this, regardless of original thumb design.

Terry, that is very true.

My initial training was with an M1.

Most of these children don't know what they missed.............I only got clipped once (OK....twice)....but you'd hear...........wham.....that $%##.......another M1 thumb.

It was a happy day when we were issued the M14s...........
