I arrived there after lunch, rather late today. A GREAT TRIP! The Amorer ( Leon Rutherford) was awesome and went beyond the call of duty for me. Save me money, swapped out a trigger group for me (no scratches). He Gauged over a dozen rifles, picked out the nice wood, broke em down to shoe wear ( non-existent) etc., etc. etc. I FELT LIKE ROYALTY, not a NEWBIE! Love that guy! He also threw in some free stuff!
I was looking at the 995 USD Specials with the new criterion barrels on the website. However the armorer, said the 795 USD specials were the same but cheaper ( only carried in the stores, not enough supply for internet sales.) In fact the armorer was so awesome he took a barrel from a 795 USD special, and a 995 USD Special and gauged them. My cheaper Garand gauged better (1). Although he said that didn't mean it would shoot better, although I HAVE A SHOOTER FOR SURE! HELL OF A DEAL!!!!! Great visit, efficient, courteous, professional, and helpful. No more looking for Garands on the internet! I GOT WHAT I WANTED!
FYI- By the way They didn't have anymore 192 ammo cans BUT THEY DID HAVE 240 Ammo cans!
My Garand dated 1954, Springfield Armory, all matching parts and appropriate serial numbers. Only the stock is new. NO WEAR ON THE OP-ROD. No Rust, no wear. LIKE A NEW DAMN GUN. I'd rather have this one than a new M1A actually. Just me. Thanks everyone! Hell of a day!
My Garand will arrive Monday, and the Ammo later ( 3 to 5 days ground)! i saw box it up and everything! Just damn awesomeeeeee!!! Yeah!
If you are 2 states over or maybe 12 hours away (Drive) I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND GOING TO THE STORE. More things there than website! Also GREAT to have those armorers to yourself. i went during the week on purpose, right during lunch. NO ONE WAS THERE. A few people trickled end after me. Thanks everyone who contributed to my earlier threads. Still learning guys!!
