Every real American should own a M1.
Fake ones too! They’re amazing
Abrams
Got a Feb ‘42 Winchester from CMP. Beautiful rifle.
I own an M-14. Does that count?
It was an option to "borrow" one from the USA: it was a $50 processing fee, and it was still property of the government.
But that was it: if you died, it was supposed to be returned, but it was common for them to...just vanish.
I had one in '76-'77 ( Coast Guard: always really armed).
I was the only guy who brought a cleaning kit, had the cleanest rifle, and NEVER had M-1 Thumb.
Cleaned, lubed, and competently operated>>>no M-1 Thumb for me, EVER.
Hard to hold on, when you've got a stuck/clumsy thumb.
Good video!
Nice to see a young man with an appreciation for the classics.
fondling my m1 as i watch this....march 1944 receiver, heavily worn stock. Perfect!!
Yep! Just brought mine today. Overloaded my CC…again…but the instant I saw it at my local gun shop, I didn’t even think. Out it came and I took it home! Mine is a Springfield Armory one, receiver’s serial number place it between February to November 1944. Of course everything else got replaced or refurbished throughout the year, including the furniture and op rod etc. but it’s a Garand, and I have to have one!
I got a tipo 2 Garand, 7.62x51 on a Springfield receiver dated 1942. Awesome shooter with a rich Italian heritage.
When I shot an M1 for practice in the army, I couldn't believe it could hit the target. The targeting device was big and the target was lost behind it, and then I saw that unbelievably all the bullets hit the target. This rifle is perfect for sniping. If it has a camera it will be 10/10.
After witnessing how vulnerable our world is to natural and man-made disasters, I felt that my .44 and .357 magnum revolvers were inadequate tools for protecting myself, my family, and my food and water. Since I am an American history enthusiast, I decided that the M1 Garand would be the perfect addition to my survival kit while also being a wonderful discussion piece. My rifle was manufactured in 1943 and is very accurate and easy to fire. I am thrilled with my choice and would never trade it for a M16 or AR15.
Had a good time watching good job I appreciate younger generation loving garands and all guns
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Yes sir! I can finally say I own one. It was a very unexpected blessing. And I can honestly say, even in 2019 with everything that's out there I would never feel under gunned carrying this. Phenomenal rifle.
Mine was totally unexpected as well. Did some work for a guy and he said he had some guns he would sell to get some of his money back if I was interested. Low and behold one of them was a nice M1 Garand. WW2 era for a good price. was not about to pass it up
@@wagstag89 curious what you paid total for the garand? I just got one from a member of my family who passed. not going to sell it, just curious is all.
@@garrettzkool63 I paid $900 and the rifle was in really good condition and hadn't been fired since it left the CMP armory. I think pretty much any functional Garand in good condition should be worth over a thousand at this point
Good video. Purchased a rifle from CMP last year. The process was a bit bureaucratic but once my papers were mailed it was smooth sailing. They processed my order within days. Had the rifle 2 days after they announced it shipped.
Nice video man! Its stupid RUclips demonetized this video when this rifle was on the frontline to make it possible for the country they exist in now.
The demonetizing, shadowbanning, and censorship on YT and other social media platforms is getting out of hand, free speech has clearly gone out the backdoor. Now as far as the video itself, I just inherited one of these from my grandfather that was able to take it home after being in the pacific. I definitely won't be using it much, it's far too important of a rifle, I have a stainless mini 14 to use and abuse at the range instead lol. It was indeed a great video, now I just need to make sure I have the cleaning process down, I keep my rifles and pistols immaculate.
I want a list of the advertisers who are refusing to monetize videos on history or guns because I don’t want to buy from them because I’m about sick and tired of this shit.
@@Thomathan
Go to the Top ... tell that little POS that owns You Tube
@@boxlid214 my friend inherited his great grandfather's m1 after fighting in Europe
@@boxlid214 You should enjoy all your firearms by shooting them! With modern ammo that’s specifically designed for shooting Garands, a special cleaning processes isn’t exactly mandatory. An import point not mentioned but worth knowing is limiting the amount of times you remove the trigger group. Over time with frequent and repeated compression of the trigger group into the stock leads to an eventual loose fit that can effect the Garands accuracy. Really the only need to take down or filed strip it that way is for applying grease on some internal parts.
I bought my first Garand in 1963. I was 14 years old. I bought it & a Nobel (Italian made) 20ga pump shotgun at Sears & Roebuck in New Orleans with money I made mowing a trailer parknin Burass, La.
Got to tell the story on this because it shows how impressionable I was. I'd listened to my uncle's & my dad talk about the war & I had read some books.
Our deep freezer had died during a thunder storm. So, every blanket & quilt in the house was thrown over it & mom & dad were going to get a new uone. They borrowed a pickup from our neighbor, a farmer. (Only farmers & working people had trucks in those days. It was a 62 GMC. I know, we all want that truck now.) I got to go with them because Sears was having a sale on the Browning A5 12ga. I wanted it & my parents were okay with it. My dad said I'd grow into it. When we got there my parents went to appliances & I went to sporting goods.
As I walked up to the gun area there was a rack along the wall with surplus Garands. I went into gawk mode. Mind you they weren't behind a counter. They didn't have a cable run through the trigger guards. They didn't have lock bar preventing you from picking one up. They were just lined up one by one in a plywood rack. I walked up & down a couple of times. Then a salesman comes walking to me. (A little younger than my dad, fit, not as tall as my dad, but had that "veteran" look about him.) He talked to me. Found out what I was there for. Looked me over. I was a little taller than most my age, but lightly built at that age. We went to the counter and he handed me the Browning. Thing weighed a TON. Then he handed me a box of highbrass 12 Guage shells. I'm starting to rethink. Then he handed that light weight Italian 20ga. (Made under contract for Sears by Breda.) Price? $60 US. I was sold. Then he pointed out that. For what I would have paid for the Browning I could have that & a Garand. OH HELL YEAH! He took me to the rack & started checking actions and triggers. We went back to the third one on the rack. He liked that one. It ended up I bought both & 3 boxes of 20ga #6 & a 30 cal can full of loaded enblocs. Then as I'm trying to figure out how to carry all that to the appliance dept he says wait there's more. He goes in the back and comes out with a box. He shows the the number on the box & the number on the reciever. They match. It says Red River Arsenal on the box. Inside were a sling, the cleaning kit, a bayonet, and a cartridge belt. He slipped the cleaning kit into the butt stock, put the sling on the rifle, stuck the bayonet, with guard in place & slung the cartridge belt over my shoulder, then the Garand over the other handed me the shotgun, picked the bag of shot shells & the 30 cal can and walked me to appliances. Where he & my dad got into a conversation.
Turns out Mr Vance was a marine. Went in on the 1st wave in Korea. Stayed for the rest. Dad landed in Operation Torch. Then Cassarine Pass, then attached to Patton, Sicily, & all after that.
That Garand cost me $80 & change. But, I was a kid. Dad taught me all the upkeep on it. I let it get away. It was part trade on a Triumph Tiger motorcycle.
The Garand I have now is a real bag of tricks. I acquired it coming out of a gunshow. Y'all remember when there would be this big stack of 7.62x39 somewhere near the selling at $30 for a case of eastern European. Hell. I didn't even own something to shoot it, but I was thinking of buying one those $80 SKSs. I had one case & was headed for my truck when this older guy walked and asked me if I'd be willing to trade the case. I asked what he had. He led me to the trunk of an old Oldsmobile. In the trunk was a "tankerized" Garand. It looked like hell. Had an M14 upper hand guard on it for God's sake. The op-rod was a little sticky. The trigger felt scratchy. When I did a quick strip on it the piston end of the rod had some bends in it to match up to the gas block. But, the reciever was in good shape with no corrosion. The barrel was stamped .308. The bolt was nice and locked well. All the other bits & pieces look "serviceable." The old man was a veteran. He needed something with lighter recoil. I made the trade. He'd bought a Norinco SKS, but on a fixed income couldn't afford ammo for it. I acquired a ? mark for $30. But it was a Garand! I took it to a gunsmith I knew who had the chamber & muzzle guages for it. He said it was "probably" safe to shoot, but stick to low powered ammo. It became a wall hanger and conversation piece.
Then Sarco had some parts kits from Italy come in. We left Garands with Italy after the war. When NATO went to 7.62x51 Italy converted them. I got everything but the reciever. I stripped "the pig" down to barrel & reciever and took it to a smith who had the fixtures to remove the old barrel & index the new, (lucky,) Breda barrel into the reciever. I did multiple assemblies & tests of all the parts I had acquired. I have now a 7.62x51 Garand that has a solid, crisp 5lb trigger. Works well with most surplus 7.62x51. I can put 18 of 24 rounds in the 8 ring of a fullsized shillouette at 200 yds running rapid fire.
I was in the USN. I found that there was a rifle range available to me almost everywhere we went. You have may to ride a mail run to get there, but there was a range if we tied up or anchored at a USN base. It was always run by the USMC. Usually I was provided with a Garand and bandoleers of loaded enbloc clips to shoot. (Give a Texas boy all the 30.06 he can shoot and he's happy.) Several times I was set up with an M14, but was kept in the semi-auto mode. Fine with me. That's also a fine rifle.
That's my Garand story. I've fired probably a hundred of them. They've always been the most fun rifles I've shot. I just love to ride that recoil.
Thanks 👍
I love how you refer to this beautiful manufactured weapon as a tool for soldiers. Maintain it well and its the best of tools. Great vid bro.
Thanks!
A tool for killing, awesome
@Dfghx yes no doubt, MAX is showing his true ignorance. As with many others, I think it’s great to see younger folks interested in history, and the tools that helped us be the great country that we are.
@@maximilian8536
A tool for killing Nazis and Commies, people that deserve to be killed.
Idiot.
Great informative, thorough and detailed presentation. That was a fast 16 minutes.
Just keep your thumb on the top round, you don't need to hold the charging handle back. Yeah I know, crazy talk. But not. If you keep your thumb on the top round pressing down, it wont cycle forward until you release it. Never be afraid again lol.
Well done. The Garand has taught me to further respect the soldiers that carried them through battle all over the world. They're heavy and I can imagine some with smaller frames struggling to carry them for long periods of time. Hence the M1 Carbine - love that one too!
That was a really great overview with just enough significant detail. Beautiful rifle by the way. I have two (one for each of my grandkids). I carried the M16A1, my Dad the Garand.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
As a recruit in the Danish army, I was issued with this weapon in 1984.( 7.82mm)
Shortly thereafter i was issued a HK G3 and a submachinegun as a Sergeant.
EXCEELENT PRESENTATION
I love this gun! My Dad has one displayed in his gun cabinet.
You did good boy ...Keep it up !!!
God bless america, hello from alabama
I love my 1943 M1 Rifle. I own a lot of rifles but this one is my absolute pride and joy. It’s just an awesome piece of Americana.
Thank you so much for this video. Excellent information and I will refer back multiple times. I was finally able to purchase an M1 Garand and love your history/background of the rifle. My Grandfather brought home his Garand form WW2. My Dad used one in Korea. I was able to hold my Grandfather's rifle back in 1962. I remember it fondly. I think he had to sell it a few years later due to debt. Now I finally own one.
When you mentioned the use of the M1 Garand during WW2 you showed some footage from WW1. Other than that it was a solid and informative video. I liked it.
Thanks, yeah I noticed that too, it's about a half second sandwiched between a bunch of WW2 Garand footage......it was stock footage pulled from a documentary!!
The hat have it away!!!!!!!
Could it be just one war about 30 years in length? 😏
Great presentation . Much appreciated
Excellent presentation, thank you!
Nice video. Important and helpful information. Thank you!
Nice history lesson. Good video.
In Vietnam I was issued a M14, total beast when it came to handling it and put down
some serious rounds.
Excellent video bro, lots of information in your video.
Super awesome video! Thanks for the info and I love it
excellent video.
Many winters ago I was at a gun show and a couple other guys and looking at a Garand. (I think it was $300 then, stick kicking myself). Anyhow this older guy walks up and asks "Do you want to see how this comes apart," and click, click, click, click it was laying in pieces all over the table. Then he said, "And this is how it goes back together," and click, click, click, click it was back together. He said "I used to be an armorer."
Pingggh
You did an EXCELLENT job with this. Thank you for taking the time. I will get one of these some day soon
Outstanding video. Thanks for a great review on the most iconic rifle ever made.
Excellent review👍👍
Well done video. Very informative!!

Can’t wait to research it to find out where what and when
One bucket list checked off
Picked it up
December 43
Phuck yeah
PETER PIPER Hey dont say bad word thats not nice

@@chuckclark6162 hope not...Phish sucks....Garands don’t
This is the best M1 Garand video I’ve ever seen. Good job!
Great video I’ve always wanted to shoot an M1 Garand!
M-1 Garand rifle.....won ww2..
I just got done reading about the Navajo Code talkers.....🤔
But the rifle does prove its power..compare to the bolt action that was still in use that time.
Great video brother!
Proper loading, research, and a demo?
5 of 5 American Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Excellent video
Thank you!
Nicely done...
Great video

Crimped of a few mags while in Vietnam. Lovely gun 👌
A Beautiful gun....
Your knowledge about this gun is really amazing.
An impressive introduction of an impressive Gun.
Love for M1
Thumbs up for video maker
A good speech abut this rife history ……!👍👍💐💐

excellent presentation
Thanks!
From the UK…….excellent video with matching knowledgeable presentation.
Outstanding I bought one from the CMP 1945 very good presentation 👍
Cool video.
Thanks!
Good job on your video. I've wanted an M1 Garand since I was a little kid growing up watching the TV series "COMBAT", with Vic Morrow. Fortunately, in 2010, a co-worker friend of mine was looking to sell an M1 Garand and he dropped it of at my house that night. For a gorgeous Springfield Armory M1 Garand, and two unopened spam can's of Greek 1967 ammo already loaded in en bloc clips, and already loaded up in bandolier's. I checked the rifle out completely, and it was made iin 11/1943, and it's completely S.A., but like you, I would have preferred the original stock, but the new stock is beautiful with nice color. Thank's again for your informative and helpful video. Keep the coming.
Bought mine a month ago, love it
Best rifle ever made. This rifle kept America for speaking Japanese and German.
Superb video! Great job with putting the video together and in explaining all that you did about the M1-Garand. If you were a student and I was the teacher, I'd give you a 100 and tell you, "You are now the teacher." You obviously know far more about the M1 Garand than I do, so thank you very much!

Great job educating us on one of the greatest Firearms ever
Awesome video. No idea why you don't have more views.
Thanks!! Like , share , and subscribe. Every little bit helps!
Good talk 👍🇺🇸
The old Medal of Honor games introduced me to some of my favourite guns as a kid, with the M1 Garand being my favourite. That *ping* is iconic.
Great video, I’ve got a 1953 H&R M1 Garand,in beautiful condition. I don’t think it saw combat as it’s really pretty. I feel fortunate to own it.
The M1 Garand was used in the Civil War in Nicaragua in 1978-1979. Great information.
Man, my collection is missing a m1 garand... One day!
Im a new englander and not a gun person, but the garrand is a historic beauty
had to change my underwear after that ping in the intro
Haha, I completely understand!
The safety is the number one reason alot of ww2 vets did like that gun you could lock it and also something my grandfather taught me was the only safety you ever need with a gun is your finger you don't ever put you finger on it until your ready to kill which with the garand was as simple as moving your finger forward them back to open fire when needed it was really a love hate relationship with them how he always told me
The number ONE reason???? Naaaahh
Great video. Glad I found it. I just got one of these. Can't wait to shoot it. Not finished the video yet but I haven't heard you say that you shouldn't shoot new high pressured ammo out of these. You have to buy ammo specifically for the m1
I have a Springfield 52' and an HR 55', the Springfield has a pretty worn stock and the HR looks brand new. I was going to redo the stock on the Springfield but like you said, it has all that history and it looks like it came back from Korea. Why get rid of that? It earned it. But what a great rifle. When I first shot the Garand, being a guy who literally grew up on the Mauser, I was like "no wonder why we won that war". Obviously there was more to it, but damn that rifle can run. The en bloc clip is actually pretty genius.
very powerful gun
I have a June of 41 M1 and was refurbished at red River arsenal in the 60s and it's all original Springfield including the stock it matches the acceptance stamp from it manufacturer date
Quick shooter story: I was working in my State's Small Arms Readiness Training Section (the marksmanship training team each State maintains in the HQ of their National Guard) and was able to help out during Show & Tell day at the NG Nationals (WPW Match) with the folks who had brought example weapons for everyone to shoot. The WPW is held at the same time and place as the world Skill At Arms Meet and competitive shooters from all the allied nations are there. I was breaking down belted M2 donated by the M1919 owner for the Garand and BAR, and loading en blocs and magazines. At lunchtime, the Garand owner took a break to eat, and asked me to repeat his spiel to any visitors. Well, who would walk up but the Bundeswehr rifle team? I'm sure I was grinning uncontrollably as I repeated the verbiage I'd memorized from the owner; gas operated semiauto clip fed air cooled etc etc, but at the end I remembered being told "never neglect an opportunity to create an international incident" and finished with, "Meine Herren, this rifle is the reason we are SPEAKING ENGLISH TODAY!" And luckily a co-worker was there to be my Boswell and tell the rest of our shooters the story! I hadn't seen that many growling Germans since the Gasthaus in Schweinfurt ran out of Pilsner.
PS, my first sniper school was held with the M1D (1973) because all the XM21s were still "in country" or being refurbed. A decade later, when I got to my NG unit, the issue SWS was...yep, the M1D. This was about 1982. I got assigned to train some sniper teams and take them up to the State's AG matches, and that led to me pushing for XM21s and then M24s. I ended up buying a less-wood M1 and modernizing it. My bona fides are available online.
It's Mathew McConaugheys Voice over doppelganger! Good vid bro seriously.
Thanks!
That is a beautiful garand. Mine has original stocks and they are pretty heavily used. This makes me want to get a new stock set and oil it up.
When I was a recrut i Denmark i 1988 I had one 762 , pretty new and fking precise …… miss it a lot
i love this gun
My JROTC battalion had M-1 for armed drill and Color Guard. Class Of '98
Nice rifle I have one since 1991 from April 1945 also never left the States or was assigned to a non infantry unit. I served thirty years in the United States Army almost twenty in the Ranger Regiment I retired in 2010. So I didn't shoot it that much. Between deployments and training the last thing I wanted was to shoot for recreation. Now I have time and want to shoot. Thru the years I've acquired a good selection of rifles and shotguns. But the M1 is one of my favorites. I didn't refinish anything. I did change out all the pins and springs. I kept all the spares . Real nice rifle good luck.
Very cool. I have one from early March 45.
Thank so much. I remembered time were at military in South Viet Nam.
As a history buff, I approve. :)
The best 30.06 rifle in the world hands down
I have an Italian made Breda probably made in 1959 but this one is a Danish contract rifle for 1960. The Italian rifles are built from Winchester machinery sold to Italy. Italy was the only country after WWII to produce the M1 Garand. The M1 design would become Italy's first modern battle rifle called the BM 59 and it's selective fire with a 20 round box magazine. All the parts are made from modified M1 parts. Unlike the US M14 it was manufactured on entirely new designed machinery.
Hopefully, someday I'll own one.
A very strong and powerful rifle❤
As a lucky Garand owner, I love the mix match of parts on mine. It’s not pretty, but it does its job.
yes
The gun that killed many nazi's! Great video. To bad RUclipss algorithms dont love videos like this.
Exactly right! This video was demonitized before it was even posted......RUclips hates gun channels! Thats why Patreon has become so important and the only way I can keep making videos www.patreon.com/pilotpatriot
Perhaps because of disrespectful comments like this.
Most german soldiers were not nazi's.
@@stopandlisten6070 Perhaps you are being a little too sensitive there you think??? He didn't say ALL German soldiers were Nazis, he said that the Garand killed many Nazis, which is very true!!! Don't read more into something than there is...that makes you disrespectful!
I'm here because battlefield 5 added the m1 garand and I run into issues in comments... Nice... I'll subscribe
@@stopandlisten6070 they wore swastikas...fuck em
1:37 Technically, the Russians adopted the AVS-36 in 1936 and was standard issue for a short time, but production was stopped after they found problems in the design so they started issuing Mosin-Nagants again and later SVT-40s.
Good call but even though It was put into service the same year as the Garand, the Garand was still first. And I'm not sure you could call the AVS standard issue, it was replaced before it ever even saw its first conflict.
I bought two from cmp. One was 5he SF and the other one H R. The H R was all matching numbers and tje barrel was like new. My fiend worked there and picked them out. I sold the S P to my bro.
The stock was near perfect. I believe it was close to near collector value. I paid 650. 00 each. I purchased around 2000 rds. Recently cmp raised thier price of thier rds to nearly double the price
192 rds cost about 90 $ when i started to purchase the ammo . 80 90 $ for 192 rds 8n bando's and 125 or 130$ for 240 canned ammo. Cant touch for less tjan 280.00$plus. Cheaper to go to A g ammo or others.but i believe 2000 +rds will do me awile
My first few years in the navy we had Garands in 308. When they replaced them with the M-14 I had to adjust my prone position I always wonder how the 276 Petersen M-1 would have done.
I bought 4 in 1982. 3 for $150 each. And 1 for $300, which is numbers matching . I also bought 4 cases of ammunition.
all the good ones from CMP for $700 are long gone
This guy does play CoD so much.
Never have!!! I was more of a Halo guy back in the day!
I wouldn't say the saftey is a design flaw, I say it's just a good combat saftey. Nowadays we are too used to the ar15 style of lever, where in comparision of the day, all other countries rifles had a Mauser style saftey or something akin to a Lee enfield. Usually meant you had to break your grip and line of sight to bring the rifle off safe, were the m1 is ready in an instant by pushing the saftey forward where your hand never has to leave the grip or mess with your line of sight.
Agreed, it was a poor choice of words
@@PilotPatriot otherwise it was a good video, hit all the big topics and gave enough meat to satisfy the onlooker and a desire to dig deeper.
