A few years ago, there was a large return of Danish lend/lease M1 Garands that came back to the country. It was a good time to buy them!

In this case, Obama is not allowing their return to U.S. soil.

I guess I just paraphrased the entire email/brochure without the political slant or verbiage.

I am still hoping that an M1 is my next rifle, I have always wanted one.

I carried the M1 in 67. Then traded over to the Mickey Mouse gun (M16) What a pile of crap those were at first. Ended up with a mod. 37 Ithica 12 ga. and a 1911. I was a Tunnel Rat.
Sorry, just a load of crap no one wanted to hear.[BooHoo]

Every once in a while, I will take 3 or 4 to the range at a time and put some rounds through them. Every once in a while, I will find a good deal on a replacement part that is needed for their complete restoration like damn original lock-bar sights or an original cartouched stock and they get some tender love and polish. Otherwise, they are safe queens.
