@@HistoryinFirearms when I get out there next time, I could bring two. Unfortunately I don't have any plans to go out west this year. I normally go once or twice a year.
Great video. Easy to follow and easy to understand. I haven't disassembled nor reassembled an M1 rifle prior to watching this video. You've walked me through it and I'm sure that should I need to field strip my weapon, I now can. Thank you.
I just bought a winchester M1 rechambered to NATO 7.62. It seems to have been worked in Italy and came full of Cosmolin everywhere. This video gave me all the information to take it apart and clean it before I take it to the range. Thank you for this!
What a great video. I'm awaiting delivery of my M1 from the CMP and your videos will be a fantastic resource. Thank you for the high quality instructions.
Thank you for the video. Great for relearning what I forgot when I built an M1 a few years ago at CMP Custom Shop, but don’t shoot regularly and easy to forget.
The firing pin is free-floating. So it should be loose within the bolt. With the bolt locked back, if you tilt the rifle forward, the firing pin will protrude, then if you tilt the rifle back it should slide back in to the bolt freely.
Es y fue un hermoso rifle de guerra y muy bien construido y muy significativo para los Americanos porque libro muchas guerras .pero lo que tiene de malo es que tiene Muchas piezas móviles sujetas a roturas o deformaciones. Pero no dejo de reconocer que fue y será siempre un GRAN FUSIL PARA TODO USO 😂
This is true, as evidenced in the numerous small improvements in the parts that were made over the years. And yes, the disassembly is far more involved than previous and successive rifles.
Best disassembly/reassembly video by far. Relaxed, good narration accompanied with the best views of the various parts I've ever seen. Excellent lighting. Overall very good presentation. Thank you.
@@HistoryinFirearms I'm planning on getting some kroil due to suggestions from others I've recently talked to. Any suggestion on good aftermarket tools? I don't have the combination tool used in the video but I have been using the M10 Combo tool from the cleaning kit.
@@KalebKraft108 Yeah, put that oil on and let it sit. The M10 tool works pretty well, I do have a video on that kit. I Don't have a specific aftermarket tool to suggest, but my thought for that was because they have 4 blades, if you will, like a Phillips head screwdriver, so have a but more engagement with the screw.
Came back to watch again. I'm a little rusty field stripping a Garand. I used the information to help disassemble and reassemble my BM59E.
Right on! I'd like to get a BM59 at some point.

Thanks! I do the videos as a reference for myself also and will watch my videos for a reminder on how to do things. 👍
Much needed been many years ROTC in school so great video. Something I think a lot of guys are brushing up on.
Glad you found it useful!
Very thorough. Thanks!
You are welcome and thanks!
Great demonstration.
Thanks!
Much better than the other videos on RUclips. 😊
Thank you!
@@HistoryinFirearms you're welcome. 😊
When you wreck the slide back is the firing pin supposed to stick out a little bit but when you touch it, it goes back in is this a bad thing?

Thank you. Very clear instructions 👌

If the M1 Garand operating Op rod spring is bad can it cause jams and failure to load? And put a round into battery
Yep, definitely.
Great video! Now I just need to figure what all to put in the butt trap to be historically accurate… LOL
Cleaning kit videos are coming 😁👍
@@HistoryinFirearms thank the lord! When they are out I will be there! Haha thanks!

Any tips on particularly stuck gas cylinder lock screws?
I would let that soak with some oil if you haven't already. The aftermarket tools may also be of benefit also

@@KJK9029 The M10 cleaning rod handle/combo tool works just fine for all the tool needs. I do have a video on the M10 if you haven't checked that out.
Thanks from khyberpass
You're welcome! Hope all is well over there.
Where can I get that multi tool? Loved the video.
eBay or any number of surplus dealers. There are a few different ones. I have specific videos on most of them so far.
@@HistoryinFirearms is there any house hold items which can safely be used for getting the pin out?
@@mvdb8110 Which pin are you referring to?
