They're sweet little rifle's aren't they? Mine is all original WWII, rebarreled in '44 and runs like silk!
Nice!
Also way to go to sign up for the match!!! Really nice to see folks giving the old war horses a workout.
Looks like I have a conflict early Friday evening, so I may try something on Wednesday or Thursday. I've shot a few JC Garand matches but my post surgery shoulder isn't quite ready for prime time. Might take the SAFS and shoot the M16 match on Wednesday or the EIC on Thursday. If I can get out early enough, maybe the As-Issued 1911 match on Friday.
There's another thread regarding who's going. I need to check in there, so should you. Good luck!

I pray they don't bust balls when you get your carbine checked. That extension could be a DQ.
Does not matter how you receive it from the CMP
I'm jealous.....I can't go. I wanted to and Carbine Match was on my list. The carbine match is challenging there are some very good shooters.
There's a gent out of western MA I see in the results often.... Mr. Williams.... the winners are often in the high 370s+
Focus on that front sight and shoot well!

Had a great time. Shot carbine and GSM. Bought the garand right before the match lol. Brought my older garand but the wra special was too. Much to let go. First match ever for me. Didn't come in last, which was my goal.
You'll like the accuracy of that Special. Before you shoot it in a match, check the sights to make sure they are properly tightened. Speaking from experience, ahem...
![[smile]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/001.gif "Smile [smile]")
When I was in the store on Wednesday evening, there appeared to be a pretty good selection of Garands in varying condition and prices. I think the stacks of boxes were more of them yet to be put on display. Seemed like they were showing ~35 rifles on top of the stacks. I resisted the temptation to buy another Garand, but barely. Perhaps I'll buy a spare receiver someday soon to build one, someday...

I'm actually shocked they had that many rifles.
