    Good source for M1 Garand clips?

    There are no such thing as Greek enblocs. The Greeks used French, German, and USGI enblocs to load their ammo on.

    Good source for M1 Garand clips?

    Even the commercial enblocs CMP sells can be problematic, stay away from new enblocs on EBay, many times they are cheap made china garbage. Use good old USGI enblocs

    Do I need to check M1 Garand headspace from CMP?

    Yes you should definatly check headspace. Rifles are supposed to be test fired and head space checked but some do slip between the cracks, more so lately. Buddy of mine had one that would not close on a go gauge, very dangerous. Also a good idea to atleast replace the op rod spring with one...

    Unfinished Wood on miltary stocks?

    Not all WRA buttplates are stamped S2 Post a clear up close picture of the front and back of your buttplate and I'll take a look at it I am still learning something everyday about Garands. The day you stop learning is the day you die
