Section 9: Military Weapons Subject: CMP Garand? Msg# 1183859

FWIW, I do appreciate Criterion barrels, and might put one on my Blue Sky M1 Carbine some day, so I'm not disrespecting that.
Criterion has a good reputation for replacement of military rifle barrels, as does Krieger. There was a time that people like Sarco and SOG had new in the cosmoline USGI Garand or M1 Carbine barrels at reasonable prices, but I haven't a clue if anything like that still exists. Harvey |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I found another M1 with mostly original parts, a more realistic appearing stock, and a receiver/barrel combo from the same company made a year apart. And the erosion numbers were very good. A much better option for me than the one I posted. I realize that most people are apparently going to go for the rifle I posted, but I'm done looking at it. FWIW, I do appreciate Criterion barrels, and might put one on my Blue Sky M1 Carbine some day, so I'm not disrespecting that. But the more I look at the stock on this one the more it looks like a farmer in a tuxedo mucking out the horse barn. Something for others who want to ooh and ahh, but not me. Garands didn't go to war looking like that. |
