introduction/question

Post by The Nizzard »

Hey all..
Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself...
Just relocated to Prescott area.
CCW holder and multiple firearm owner. Love it here!
Anyway, I am looking to purchase an M1 Garand. Was wondering if anybody had any suggestions. I realize there are plenty online, but I would much rather be able to check it out in person instead of purchasing from a description.

Thanks ......
The Nizzard

There is an older gentleman who I see at all the Phx area gun shows. Don’t know his name, but he always has several dozen M1 Garands for sale of various prices. It’s his hobby; he buys parts and makes each gun period correct...Springfields, Winchester, etc. his prices are very fair.

Maybe someone here knows his name, but he’s always at the Phx fairgrounds shows near the front of the indoor show.

There are always some at the casino gun shows up there.

Avoid J&G unless you have to.

go to cmp shoots in next coming weeks at several ranges i believe, cmp sells or reserves units or used, too, my stable is full of garands and carbines, so haven't looked for years.
