    I’m from California and I own one. The M-1 Garand is NOT an assault rifle, it’s a work of art.

      R&D Tower Berlin It's a joy to shoot and very capable, 75+ years after the first prototype rolled out of the hand-assembly room. Stout and reliable, inexpensive to feed, easy to shoot, and far more interesting than any AR-pattern rifle.

    Combat grade firearms are EXACTLY what the Founders had in mind. Civilian marksmanship is essential to liberty.

    Awesome! I do headspacing the exact same way! Nice to see someone strip the bolt prior to checking headspace. Well done, and well explained!

    I am from CA. Let me make it straight: if anyone does not know how to appreciate the M1 Garand, I don’t know where his heart is !

    the GI gauges had a cut in the back to accommodate the extractor

    DesertDog, just thought I'd throw a bit in. Per the CMP, Clymer headspace gauges are closest to the datum points used by the military and that's what they recommend. I couldn't find any anywhere except Brownells, but I found Forsters all over the place.

    Can’t believe TH-cam hasn’t taken this video down, since it features a fully semi automatic death machine

    Yea a shoe on your foot is also an assault weapon but those arnt banned ....yet

  • @nolanjohnson1729

    Hope you still check comments, my m1 garand from the CMP has a muzzle reading of what looks like a 14. If it is really 14, is that bad? From what I’ve read is that you atleast want it under 10, but under 5 is ideal. The throat reading is 1 so I’m hoping it’s a type.

    Here's the deal about the M1 being an "assault" weapon, or any other gun for that matter-
    People need to realize that the gun is not the weapon. I'm the weapon.

    LOL! Good one. "You CA are not Americans" I left CA 5 yrs ago, I just cant believe the craziness happening there. Now you have to do a background check for Ammo purchase? what the heck? I guess muskets are next? Anyways, thanks for posting this vid. I just purchase an M1 and needed to check for headspace to make sure it is operable, since I just noticed one of the ammo case stretching (it could be a fluke).

      I say it's this guy's video, let him say and do what he wants.California is an embarrassment to this country and should be shunned in every video no matter the topic lol. Even if it was a video about cutting hair,there should be a mandatory three minute time frame at least to call out California for being communist
