    My brother owns almost a dozen of these. Last time we went to the range we brought one and he didn't warn me about "Garand thumb." All I knew about the gun was from video games, and they usually don't depict those kind of things in games. He was really disappointed that I didn't get my thumb eaten. I really enjoyed the gun though. Good heft to it.

    When my dad was in the Army, he was very left handed. So left handed he could not shoot right handed. Left handed he had a marksman's badge. On the range, the old Garand ejected shells out to the right, so when he shot left handed they would hit him in the head. He wore his helmet on the range and the shells would eject hitting his helmet and making an almost bell sound. He said his NCO knew he was on the range because he could hear the repeat of the rifle followed by the sound of the rounds hitting his helmet.

    10:56: my father (who is 95) and his late brother (who would have been 98 or 99) both said that the most likely time to get what they called m-1 thumb was when a trainee would incorrectly execute inspection arms. When I find my original 1941 soldiers manual I'll add the appropriate instructions.
    Edit: As promised FM 21-100 Basic Field Manual Soldiers Handbook July 23 1941
    Pg.96 paragraph 114. Being at Inspection Arms.
    U.S. rifle, caliber .30, M1-1. At the command Lock (or Unlock) Pieces, place the right hand against the operating rod handle with the fingers extended and joined and the thumb on the follower. (TWO) Force the operating rod handle slightly to the rear, depress the follower with the right thumb, and permit the bolt to ride forward about 1 inch over the follower. (THREE) Remove the thumb from the follower and release the operating rod handle. (FOUR) Lock the piece or unlock the piece and pull the trigger as the case may be (par. 104b(2)) and resume the position of PORT ARMS. After pieces have been locked or unlocked, as prescribed above, ORDER or RIGHT SHOULDER ARMS is given or the unit is dismissed.
    Unlike the modern SMART book, there is no breakdown of common tasks in go/no go sub tasks. The drawings of positions in the manual are on the other hand, much better.

    Back in the 90’s I had a friend that introduced me to DCM matches. We would pay $20 and could use the rifle club’s M1 Garands, and they let us keep the spent brass and clips. But, the thing I remember the most was learning how to twist two rounds in a clip, and load it without getting my thumb slammed! The club would only let us load two rounds to “site in” before counting and scoring the rounds. Damn those were the days.

    I've gotten Garand Thumb, and my encounter was like the last of the volunteer test subject. My Garand would bite me EVERY time, so I was going to try the Holbrook Thumb-saver, that makes the Garand bolt hold-open until the same rearward tug as the M14.
    Now, to explain, I was taught to place the meat of the ridge of my hand against the operating rod handle, while using the thumb to push down the clip, and my hands aren't as meaty as most my size (long, narrow fingers, great for fishing small parts out of confined, tight places, and building things like guns, bikes, and models, but not crushing strong in odd positions.
    But a comment on the Holbrook device may be of interest to your audience.
    Love the show.

    Ouch. Thanks for taking one for the team. I used to have a Chinese made air rifle that was a side leaver. It has a pretty dangerous breech. There were two safety mechanisms you had to press in simultaneously to close the breech. so it was almost impossible to get pinched when you were loading it. But if somehow you did, I would imagine that it would easily break a finger. Wish I hadn't sold it. You can't get that model anymore and it was a nice conversation piece and fun to plink with.
