Since you seem to be into garands, someone on the Gunsmith board was asking for recommendations on a garand 'smith, if you know of one check it out over there.

Why so many? Besides liking them, were some real good deals?

I've always done all the work on my Garands, and the guy you referred to limited his options to 50 mile radius. Originally Posted by danp

Couple = two items of the same kind. I think you meant to say a S#@T Load!
Great Collection.
Do you pick them up at CMP? Been thinking about picking up a few that are coming back from Greece.

About half have come from the CMP\DCM, some of the most collectable have been found at estate auctions. If you order any of the Greek returns, go with service grade or better. Some of the rackers are a little rough. Originally Posted by phillyd2

Now that is quite a collection!!! Do you shot or collect guns other than garands as well?

After aquiring just about every "flavor" of Garand, I began branching out to other WWII Originally Posted by BankerA

and have built a few of those. Also have AR's, M1A and a couple FAL kits.
Currently I'm looking for an all original SVT 40 (hint,hint)
Don't shoot much anymore, since eyes have become C&R.

Re: Couple Garands
I was going through the last pages of this thread, and this is a cool picture so I figured I'd bump it to the top...
