How about a cheap M1 Garand or carbine?

[headspace]

Anybody remember the days of the $200 Garand or the $125 M1 carbine?
Mine were purchased back when they were surplus rifles and cheap to aquire. Here's hoping we could see similar times soon.

Yes!

I hope they can get it worked out. I could use another Garand and a carbine.

Would like one of each. And ammo!!!

The asking price for A run of the mill Garand at the Kenner gun show this weekend was $3000....... Of course everything was over priced.

Didnt read article but if they are imported its going to private companies and not CMP so there goes the chance of a nice price

Exactly how do they get put back into US Circulation? Didn't have time to read the whole article if it was in there.

Originally I understood they were going to be for sale through private importers. But IF I understood the article now they're making provisions to sell them through the CMP. But don't worry even if they only sell through the CMP it should drive market prices down over all.

From what I've been led to believe these are pretty darn rough looking rifles.

I doubt that it will happen. Definitely not under the current administration. Probably not under any future administration, be it Democratic or Republican. I do applaud the efforts of U.S. Rep. Cynthia Lummis and hope that other representatives support her proposed bill and others like it. I would love to see those old classic war horses repatriated and residing in the hands of U. S. civilians that respect the heritage and accomplishments that those rifles & carbines represent.

I'd love to see it happen!

I think when SHTF you'll see just as many M1 garands and carbines out there as you will ar's and ak's....

I still want a carbine. I'm just not willing to pay the current rate for one... I'd jump on this in a heart beat.

from what ive read most have either been used as drill rifles for conscript trainees or kept in locked shipping containers. most are not safe to fire as they are.
