Photobucket seems to be committing corporate suicide.

Anyway, following is an interesting YouTube treatment on a BM59 type being built by James River Armory.

As Photobucket has cut everyone off who isn't paying extortion, there is no way to know if this is a duplicate. Anyhow, I offer up a photo from the Garand Collectors magazine. Photo credits integral to the photo.

One thing I notice is how these Marines are demonstrating the sitting position so well. Elbows are beyond the knees, not on top. Cool shot of the two enbloc clips and two empties in the air.

I believe these images are of a McCann conversion in .458 Win Mag

The BEST Garands sold at auction.

From Rock Island Armory's auction, prototype Garands, exotic variants and even JFK's Garand... these guns sold for 20- 30 thousand dollars!

I finally got some quality time in with mine today. I am in love all over again. This thing is amazing!

Word in the rooms is that CMP is now receiving the 86,000 Garands from the Philippines.
I found no reference to this on the CMP site.
