COMPLETE M1 GARAND

The robust M1 Garand has survived the tests of battle in both World War II and Korea and remains a favourite among competition shooters and collectors. This heavily illustrated, practical history provides background on manufacturers and US sources, as well as discussing ammunition and accuracy. Detailed photograph sections present the early and World War II rifles, the World War II and post-war rebuilds, special purpose rifles and rarities, including the sniper rifles, the match rifles and the T26; and spin-offs and derivatives, including the M14, M1A and BM.59. Reprinted military and National Match manuals. A troubleshooting chart, an extensive parts compendium and a section on reloading provide valuable functional data.
