Mega Rad Gun Thread

Picked up my new can tonight. Decided to snap some photos of it. It came with a .46 cal front cap, a second .30 cal front cap, and SilencerCo's ASR mount. As I said, I need to get a Charlie Piston Mount, a piston for the Mark 23, probably a 9mm piston and front cap so I can use it on my 9mm pistols until I can afford a dedicated 9mm can, and either a direct thread mount or a .45 cal muzzle device in the same thread pitch that Ruger uses on the new Marlin rifles since I definitely plan on getting a Marlin 1895 SBL in .45-70 Govt. I'm definitely stoked to be getting everything set up for mounting it on my Mark 23 and taking it to the range as soon as I can. Now if only someone will get the Charlie Piston Mount in stock...

Make sure whoever you sell it to isn't putting it in a revolver

despite some of this ammo i've got being .460 S&W i never considerd selling it to old, retarded people. shit, what if nobody involved cares? the ammo is corroded, the caliber is sure to confuse, and people like to be ripped off.

i mean, you can usually use vinegar and flour paste with a scrubbing brush to remove most sorts of brass corrosion. unless the ammo is too far gone with setback or something modern ammo is pretty resilient.

I've got a buddy who has recently been bit by the Mini-14 bug. He's got one in 5.56mm and he's planning on doing a second one built up to basically be an 80s style KAC-556k with the wood folding stock and everything, but in .300blk with a sound suppressor and modern red dot. He's an odd duck with odd tastes in firearms (though I share some of those same tastes, such as vintage S&W N Frames and M14s), but he's my bro and a good guy.

I thoroughly like it as an alternative after shooting quiet a few ARs I learned I don't really care for the platform nothing wrong with it per se I just want a different platform and as a HUGE fudd taste wise the mini keeps the cool garand action with a flair for the modern

FAB Arms isn't making pistol grips for it anymore and the stock/"SAW" grips suck ass
Otherwise the ergonomics are leagues ahead of any other cold war battle rifle. Length of pull is also fine, ignore the gimpy Brits.

Seems the CMP is disassembling Mod 1 and 0's to build more normal Garands. People have said this for years but really if you want a Garand get one soon. They really are dwindling

I'm so glad I don't want one, it's in such a horrible spot in the public eye. People don't give a shit about them they just want to have it to say they do and post it once or twice on instagram like a purse dog.

I guess I don't understand your view. There's certainly people who only want one to say they do for sure, but I think most people I've seen genuinely care about the history and had family who carried one. The only people who shouldn't have them are the resellers who drain the CMP, and the fucking retards who can't do a little paperwork ordering from the resellers on GunBroker for $2k. I knew this idiot kid who I tried to literally walk through how to do the paperwork, and he said "it too hard" and got a super late serial number for like $2k, a service grade. When I ordered through the CMP I got a early WW2 serial for way less. I never stopped making fun of him for that. If you can't do the paperwork you are a retard and shouldn't own one. You can't write some shit down, take photocopies and get it notarized and mailed at a UPS? Seriously?

It's more of me being a snob towards retards who buy milsurp and put the highest grain ammo off the shelf through it(As Ian of Forgotten Weapons once described). Those who do not respect it and throw it into circulation at inflated prices while being damaged from misuse. It's great.

It's even better when they have it in the case it was shipped in with the paperwork on their table, like they only just got it the day before the gun show. Always a decrepit boomer.

Yeah they should read the CMP manual. 180gr or lower is fine. The oprod spring needs to be in spec and the rifle needs grease not just oil. The idea that a Garand cannot handle any off the shelf ammo is somewhat fudd lore. And with schuster seeming to not be making adjustable plugs anymore (death in the family I've heard. They've been OOS for ages) people are probably going to have to just learn that it's fine to not just shoot m2 ball. Most people aren't high round counting their M1 anyway.
