How NOT to Load an M1 Garand!

  • "Garand Thumb" is NO fun!
    Granted, as has been pointed out, if you get your thumb out of there quickly, you can load successfully without losing your thumb. The main reason this technique I'm showing is taught (And I use it always) is that it saves your thumb whenever you are messing with your M1 Garand, whether you are not getting the bolt back all the way, unloading the rifle, just checking the action, loading a partially loaded clip, etc. Probably most commonly, one gets his or her thumb caught when just working the bolt on an empty chamber, due to not getting the bolt back into the lock position. The Garand is wonderful, but the action and loading system is a bit odd, which results in a better chance of getting "Garand Thumb" in some way when trying to get the gun locked back, loaded, or whatever. I never pull the bolt back unless I have my hand against that operating rod; others can proceed however they prefer. :-) Don't forget to visit the Hickok45 store: www.hickok45.com/store/

    If you are new to our videos, YES, this one might strike you as a bit silly; however, if you have any interest in firearms, firearms history, and firearms safety, check out some of our other videos; you might learn something more useful than how to load an M1 Garand. Welcome aboard! :-)

      Yes, and to handle it and fire it. I've been shooting and handling one of my USGI 1911's from WWII this week, and just holding it and thinking about its history is so moving. There's no way around it unless a person has no I.Q. at all and no appreciation of anything worthwhile. These historical pieces of hardware are just so special.

    Thank you for this great video , Mr. Hickok and Son.
    I saw movies and some old war films of that odd , hand to the side , loading technique and never knew why.
    And I always wondered , I know that bolt is sprung hard as heck , how do you load a clip in the gun and not slam your thumb in it.
    Keep the side of your hand on that bolt lever ,as you load it or smash a part of your hand...understood.
    The clip flip at the last round is a one of a kind experience.
    Fantastic American firearm.
    4 years later , still a great video.

    We used the M1 Garand for target practice in Navy Boot Camp back in the early '70's. We were warned then how to properly load a clip into the rifle. They also said that the Marines would not use the method that Hickok 45 used; but instead would push the clip down and quickly remove it once the clip had been set in. Sometimes they were not quite quick enough and would be initiated into the M1 clipped thumb blood brotherhood. Don't know if that was true, or just our instructors making a point.

Reloading, aiming and shooting (obviously having the reload working with the bolt) was exactly like that.

      @@mattm3023 HK G3/91/CETME/ PTR-91 can really handle dirt. The roller lock system is a dirty one to begin with but at the same time, doesn't care about how hot ammo is, how clean, dirty, steel, brass- cases, et cetera. So long as the rollers are in round, bolt gap is good and cursory cleaned, it will always run. Delayed blowback is simple, bulky, but it works.

      Look up Shifty Powers (real life Brother) and his comment on the Garand: (paraphrasing) "I loved the M1. You could throw it into a mud puddle, drag it out and it'd shoot." He should know - he was there, not in his Granny's basement munching a hot pocket and being a keyboard warrior internet badass.

    Most people got Garand thumv from.messing with empty gun or it being incredibly worn and clean and with worn out clips(modern ww2 examples after heavy use) If it isnt well worn and on top of that is dirty then its incredibly unlikely to close on ones thumb. It will almost always require a little nudge to slide forward just like later in the video
