So what grade garand are you guys going to buy?

I'm a cheapass so I'm probably going to go with field grade. Rack grade sounds like it has too many problems with it.

I just noticed I'm only 2 hours away from one of their stores..

Yea Field Grade is probably what I'll be looking at too.

Same, if I could even afford it. I want to buy a Sig 229 first.

i'm probably gonna do service grade. i like to get stuff i don't have to question if i'm spending money. especially sight unseen.

Too rich for my blood. One of the field grade ones is going to be an entire paycheck.

CA has a higher cost of livng than a lot of states. Bigger checks out here, if you are good with money it opens more doors.

I'm studying to become a gunsmith anyway. so if it arrives in rough condition it would be a fun project to restore it.

I admit, that would be sweet. Nothing better than knowing and building/rebuilding inside and out. I don't have that kind of time at the moment though.

well, i was looking at a service grade.

on the CMP website. However, the civilian marksmanship program CAN ship directly to your home.

I have a quick noob question. Can the CMP ship to a CA address without any complications? I live in Southern California, anti gun person capitol of the world, and I want a Garand like no tomorrow.

I got the money set aside for 3 or 4 rack grade ones. Probably will end up doing one of the m14 synthetic stock conversions as a nice range toy to make everyone jelly. hell if I know what I'll do with the others, but you can never have too many guns.

Holy shit I'm jealous. one rack grade garand will cost an entire paycheck for me.

Not sure of the approval time. But I'll most likely be shipping the club's papers out in monday or tuesday.

I was thinking Service Grade as well for the same reason. Buying anything sight unseen gives me a tinge of nervousness, and if I'm gonna spend that kind of money, best to drop in the extra $100 to be sure it's in good shape.

I'm doin the service grade springer, myself.

I'm thinking of doing service grade. I don't want to spend more than $1000 on a gun, especially not a milsurp gun, but I'm usually not fond of wear on the gun. I mainly want a garand that's nice and clean so service grade seems right.

Order on the way for a Service grade. Hopefully it is in good shape when it comes in!
