Don't ruin it
"It is vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, peace, peace; but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?" - Patrick Henry -

I use the synthetic stock on my latest build. Took a little bit of forming, especially where the op-rod comes through. The most annoying part was finding out what metal it needed. The descriptions weren't very specific. Overall, I'm pleased with it. I thought reducing the weight would make it recoil harder, but the butt-pad is very soft and manages well. And before you start, this is my 3rd Garand built off a Rack grade CMP bare receiver, so it had no historic value to begin with. Good luck!Comment

Anyone I have talked to that used the Ramline stocks didnt like them and took them off.
They said they were very poorly made and fit was badComment

Chinese parts? Ruined? What nonsense. If it has Chinese parts it probably is a ROC rifle (which I desperately want and am reduced to begging other forum members for in other threads).
If it is, that means there is a serious chance the rifle was used to combat the communists during the Chinese civil war. I'd say that is a damn fine use for an m1. If you don't think the Chinese deserve individual rights, a democratic, free state, or m1 garands, then, boo to you, sir. Harrumph.-

IMHO, the wood is the best part of any rifle. Without the wood, it's just another semi-auto rifle. Might as well be a Ruger Mini-14 or a Saiga.
He who exercises no forethought but makes light of his opponents is sure to be captured by them.

I say thank God for government waste. If government is doing bad things, it's only the waste that prevents the harm from being greater.

If you get the urge to bubba, grab a Russian Mosin. Who cares what happens to those...
Leave the Garand out of it.

Egads! No way!Next to me in the blackness lay my oiled blue steel beauty. The greatest Christmas gift I had ever received, or would ever receive. Gradually, I drifted off to sleep, pringing ducks on the wing and getting off spectacular hip shots.

If you've got a pristine original stock that you want to keep that way, I don't see the issue with throwing on a synthetic to go to the range with to prevent possibly dings in the original.... I just wouldn't want to go bubbaing a M1Comment

My vote would be, "No", hold the rant (and therefore I didn't vote). It's your rifle, do as you please, that just wouldn't work for me.I'm retired. That's right, retired. I don't want to hear about the cop who stopped you today or how you didn't think you should get a ticket. That just makes me grumpy!Comment
