Looked at a number of Garand Threads here on THR.
Criteria is primarily to buy a good accurate shooter. Cosmetics important, historical value less so. I'm not a collector and the rifles in my price range aren't really of historical value over and above the pleasure of shooting the design itself.
The question, considering the new higher CMP pricing on Garands, what does it make sense to buy now?
CMP:
Rack: $295/$350
Field: $395
Service: $500
Correct: $850/$900
Collector: $1400
Refurbished from Fulton: $1400 - $2100
Refurbished from Garand Guy: $795 - $1295
NEW from Springfield: $1378 list (assume will be be less)
