It's a crappy old Tasco. I need to replace it with something better. The stock is one of these:

One of my Garands. It's a 1944 Springfield, CMP Service Grade purchased a few years ago. It's sporting an original 1907 sling and an American Fork & Hoe bayonet. The bayonet was just purchased from NES member Palladin. Thanks, Joe![[smile]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/001.gif "Smile [smile]")
My 1941 SA M1 Garand. CMP Service grade. barrel is a '55, stock is brand new wood.
right out of the box from CMP Springfield Service Grade...........2nd one on order got my DBU from CMP halloween. Tossed the Idea of a M1 carbine, but I am stretched to the limit on ammo diversity.

Wicked nice.
Most of what I have at the moment.
Closest is a June 1944 SA that is as close to period correct as I can get it.
Second rifle is a late H&R with the bare spot on the barrel.
The middle rifle is a Danish Naval rifle with VAR barrel and Wenig stock set, fitted by DGR and then coated with Tru Oil.
Fourth rifle is a Mossberg 44US 22
Carbine is an NPM with all the late war upgrades.
I have another H&R Garand and a Winchester Carbine I'm working on. And sold or traded six others. This barely moves the meter on jouster.com.

That Socom is a sweet gun. Dana I love your collection a little more every time I see pics of it.
this seems kind of inappropriate now, given all the nice M1's, but the thread started with a SOCOM16, so i guess i shouldn't feel too tacky-
Sweet!!
The Socom is an M1A so this is completely appropriate ![[grin]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/041.gif "Grin [grin]")
Nice of you to say but Derek's are way cooler.

Hey captain, how about some details on that fine looking iron (both of them)?
Yea what he said. Are those chrome clips?
That "tiger stripe" is usually the result of staining a Birch replacement stock.International Harvester - I really like the stock on this one!

I stripped this one and just put straight BLO on it so it's close to the natural color.

M1 Garand (AKA Betsy)
I also have the correct bayonet for Betsy which has a strange story attached to it. Some 29 years ago, my best friend gave me a gift of a bayonet. It was given as a knife, not as an accessory to the M1 - I didn't even GET the M1 until 07 or so. Lo and behold, when started looking into what bayonet a 1953 M1 would take, I discovered that I had it already. My friend had given it to me a quarter of a century before!![[shocked]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/007.gif "Shocked [shocked]")
