First things first-
No posting the question "How do I load the clip" [:D] [:D] [:D]
oh and get the book "How to avoid Garand thumb for dummy's"
Well he77 someone had to say it-[;)][:o)]
We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box.

FrancF, I sure hope I can figure it out! I'll be sure to post a photo of the inevitable Garand Thumb I know I'm going to get. Heck, maybe I'll just stick my thumb in there and let it close to get it over with! [:o)][:o)][:o)]

"The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long..."
Thomas Jefferson, of Virginia:
"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms. . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
I think most Garand thumb is from idiots trying to close the bolt after emptying the rifel

When I was a child, I thought as a child. But now that I am grown, I just wish I could act like a child and get away with it.

If the people have become so apathetic that they will not vote out all the liberal scum (republican and democrat alike), the only solution is Constitutional Convention II the sequel. Let's get it right this time.
Happy shooting partner.[:D]

[:D][:D]Blasphemy! The Garand is an appreciated kind of beauty. The wood on the one I got looks a tad bit rough but I'm sure I can work with it! [^]
